To start, I'm new to JS and I'm working through this problem and had nowhere else to turn.
I'm working with modernizr to switch image sources to and from .webp to speed up website loading. basically, my problem is with variable scope and setting the sources of the images in an empty array.
The code looks like this:
<script>

</script>
Really, what I'm wondering is why this array logs as an empty array after it's been populated, and also how do I fix this?
