<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
If a variable contains a string that is the same as the name of an object. Can you use that variable in place of the object name?<br />
<br />
<a href="https://cit111byui.github.io/object.html" rel="ugc">https://cit111byui.github.io/object.html</a><br />
<br />
Line 58 inside of the showInfo function:<br />
<br />
carInfo.textContent = carSelected.getInfo();<br />
<br />
Does not work as it is referencing the variable carSelect, but if I replace it with car0 or any of the objects it works fine. But the idea is to show the info of the car that is clicked on. <br />
<br />
How can I get this to work?

Can you reference an object with a variable name?
