Html – How do i get my cart-btn to start working?

In the navbar, I have a cart button that is supposed to toggle open when it is clicked on and close when the close button is clicked on. For some reason, it isn’t working.

I created an .active class in the CSS styling and I used querySelector() to get the #cart-btn id and the .close class as well. I tried to add the cart-item-container class when the cart-btn is clicked and remove it when the close button is clicked on

let shoppingcart = document.querySelector('.cart-items-container');

document.querySelector('#cart-btn').onclick = () => {
  shoppingcart.classList.add('active');
}

document.querySelector('.close').onclick = () => {
  shoppingcart.classList.remove('active');
}
header .icons #cart-btn {
  position: relative;
  z-index: 1;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  left: 70px;
}

header .icons #cart-btn .totalQuantity {
  position: absolute;
  top: -5px;
  right: 15px;
  font-size: 10px;
  background-color: #b31010;
  width: 15px;
  height: 15px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  color: var(--white);
  font-weight: bold;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  transform: translateX(20px);
}

header .cart-items-container {
  color: var(--light-black);
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  right: -100%;
  width: 400px;
  height: 100vh;
  background: var(--white);
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  padding: 25px;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  transition: right 1s;
}

header .cart-items-container .active {
  right: 0;
}
<div class="icons">
  <div class="iconCart">
    <div id="cart-btn" class='bx bx-shopping-bag'>
      <div class="totalQuantity">0</div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div id="account-btn" class='bx bx-user'></div>
  <div id="menu-btn" class='bx bx-menu'></div>
</div>

    This code achieves the behavoiur you expected.

    Just the open button seems out of place there, so perhaps this is where you get lost.

    Try writing your buttons as following:

    <div class="buttons">
    <div id="cart-btn">OPEN</div>
    <div class="close">CLOSE</div>
    <div class="checkout">
      <a href="checkout.html">CHECKOUT</a>
    </div>
 </div>

    You need to hide the cart contents using the :not() selector. Here’s a working version:

    Fiddle:

    Snippet:

    let shoppingcart = document.querySelector('.cart-items-container');

document.querySelector('#cart-btn').onclick = () => {
  shoppingcart.classList.add('active');
}

document.querySelector('.close').onclick = () => {
  shoppingcart.classList.remove('active');
}
    .icons #cart-btn {
  position: relative;
  z-index: 1;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}

.icons #cart-btn .totalQuantity {
  position: absolute;
  top: -5px;
  right: 15px;
  font-size: 14px;
  background-color: #b31010;
  width: 30px;
  height: 30px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  color: var(--white);
  font-weight: bold;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  transform: translateX(20px);
}

.cart-items-container {
  color: var(--light-black);
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  right: -100%;
  width: 400px;
  height: 100vh;
  background: var(--white);
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  padding: 25px;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  transition: right 1s;
}

.cart-items-container.active {
  right: 0;
  display: block;
}
.cart-items-container:not(.active) {
  display: none;
}
    <div class="icons">
  <div class="iconCart">
    <div id="cart-btn" class='bx bx-shopping-bag'>
      <div class="totalQuantity">0</div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div id="account-btn" class='bx bx-user'></div>
  <div id="menu-btn" class='bx bx-menu'></div>
</div>

<!--SHOPPING CART-->
<div class="cart-items-container">
  <!--div id="close" class='bx bx-x'></div-->
  <h2>CART</h2>
  <div class="listCart">
    <div class="item">
