Challenge http://www.freecodecamp.com/challenges/waypoint-target-the-parent-of-an-element-using-jquery has an issue. Please describe how to reproduce it, and include links to screenshots if possible.

This is not a bug.

In your code you are targeting the PARENT of the div with the ID left-well. Thus, you are targeting the div with the class col-xs-6.

Since you're targeting the left-well ID using the parent() selector, you'd want to target one of the children within that ID.

For example, the code:

$("#target1").parent().css("background-color", "red")

should (and does) work. Hope this helps.

Correct Answer is,

$("#left-well").css("background-color","red");
$('#target1').parent().css('background-color','red');
