## Stoplight
9 years ago
#### Challenge One: Button Click
Wire up the buttons to the left of the stoplight so that when clicked, the corresponding bulb will turn on and any others will turn off.
#### Challenge Two: Button Toggle
Alter you event listeners to toggle the on/off state of each bulb. All three lights can be on or off for this challenge.
#### Challenge Three: Hover/Group Handler
A) Keep your existing code, but add new event listeners on each of your buttons that log `"Entered [textContent] button"` when a user mouses over a button.
B) Add new event listeners on each of your buttons that log `"Left [textContent] button"` when a user mouses out.
C) Add a single event listener on all three buttons as a group. In your group event handler, log the `textContent` of each button when a user clicks the button.
