Answer 27

The idea is that if we have a lot of elements handled in a similar way, then instead of assigning a "handler" to each of them We put a single handler on their common ancestor. ``` table.onclick = function(event) { let target = event.target; // where was the click? ``` if (target.tagName != 'TD') return; // not on TD? Then we're not interested highlight(target); // highlight it };
