Problem

I have two rows of a table here. When I click the checkbox in the first table row, I'm trying to target the ID of the span in the next table row. I have an alert in my code just to show me that I was successful. What I have isn't working. I can't figure out a way to select data in the next table row when the checkbox in the first row is clicked. ``` <table> <tr id="row-a"> <td> <input type="checkbox"> <span> some text </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <span id="target"> some text </span> </td> </tr> </table> $(document).ready(function() { var myCheck = $("tr#row-a td input"); myCheck.change(function(){ var spanID = $("tr#row-a').next('tr').find('span').attr('id'); alert(spanID); }); }); ```
