Guys, I’ve been experiencing an issue where my function has been constantly executing without actually.
Here is my JavaScript code
<script>
//Constants
const testInput = document.querySelector('[name=test]');
//EventListeners
testInput.addEventListener('click', ExecuteReload());
//Functions
function ExecuteReload(){
location.reload;
}
Please help me out, I’m at a lost, I don’t know what’s going on.

Hi @brendRos,
The error is quite common and it’s not actually an error, it’s how JavaScript works.
Turn your attention to your Event Listeners:
You need to make ExecuteReload() be like ExecuteReload. If you leave the () it will keep calling the function without it actually being called.
One other thing unless this is an example, you don’t need to actually have another function in your Event Listener just for reloading the window.
Here is how I would’ve done it
