How do I target my class task for the event Listener to Handle?

My buttons for edit delete and save are not working and that is because the event listener is passing an element that has nothing in it, but I want to target the class <div class="task" date-id = "${id}"> for the event listener.

This is what is wrong:

elements.list.addEventListener('click',event => the elements.list is wrong as it is not holding anything. But I would like to target the <div class="task" date-id = "${id}"> for the eventEventListener.

Please see the full code so you have a better idea:

I have been asking a lot about this on the platform, but I realized I have been asking the wrong question. As mentioned above I need the event listener to target the <div class="task" date-id = "${id}"> that has been created with const tasks = document.createElement("div");

The reason is when you click on add task it creates a new <div class="task" date-id = "${id}"> for example ``````` with the contents class and everything in there.

PS: Apologies for the long-winded code, it's necessary so that you get the full picture of the issue and question
