I cant seem to wrap my head around the first part of this code ( += ) in combination with the ternary operator.
h.className += h.className ? ' error' : 'error'
The way i think this code works is as following:
h.className = h.className + h.className ? ' error' : 'error'
But that isn't correct because that gives a error in my console.
So my question is how should i interpet this code correctly?
h.className = h.className + (h.className ? ' error' : 'error')
You want the operator to work for h.className
, better be specific about it.
Of course, no harm should come from h.className += ' error'
, but that's another matter.
Also, note that +
has precedence over the ternary operator: JavaScript Operator Precedence
