Despite my efforts, the "Hamburger menu" I created looks great but fails to function when clicked.
I have set up an event listener to detect any clicks on the button and toggle the class accordingly to show or hide the ul elements.
I am struggling to identify the mistake on my own. Is there a simpler solution available?
const toggleButton = document.getElementsByClassName('toggle-button')[0];
const navbarLinks = document.getElementsByClassName('navbar-links')[0];
toggleButton.addEventListener('click' ,function (){
navbarLinks.classList.toggle('active')
});

The hamburger icon appears as expected, but remains unresponsive to clicks
