I seem to be following the documentation exactly but I can't figure out why it won't highlight the navbar list-item text as a scroll down to those sections.
This is my body tag:
<body data-spy="scroll" data-target=".navbar" id="home">
Here's my nav bar:
<!-- nav-->
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-light navbar-toggleable-xl
bg-primary fixed-top">
<div class="container">
<button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse"
data-target="#navbarNavAltMarkup" aria-
controls="navbarNavAltMarkup" aria-expanded="false" aria-
label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
</button>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarNavAltMarkup">
<div class="navbar-nav">
<a class="nav-item nav-link text-white" href="#home">Home</a>
<a class="nav-item nav-link text-light" href="#about">About</a>
<a class="nav-item nav-link text-light"
href="#speakers">Speakers</a>
<a class="nav-item nav-link text-light"
href="#schedule">Schedule</a>
</div>
</div>
<a class="hidden-xs-down navbar-brand text-white"
href="#">Presented by Treehouse</a>
</div>
</nav>
Here's an example of a body section that doesn't highlight when I scroll down to it:
<!--about-->
<div class="row" id="about">
<div class="col-md-4">
<h3 class="mb-4">About Full Stack Conf</h3>
<!--Why won't the image shape change?-->
