<body> <h1>Welcome, user.</h1> <input Id="user_input"> <button onclick="myFunction()">SUBMIT</button> <h1 Id="message"></h1> <script> function myFunction(){ let user_input = document.querySelector("#user_input"); let message = document.querySelector("message"); message.innerHTML = "welcome, user " + user_input.value; } </script> </body>
I have innerHTML javascript problem and is not working. Please help me to find it
html javascript innerhtml
Go to the second line in Javascript Function.
let message = document.querySelector("message");
You are missing the # sign in selecting the message in the query selector
The issue lies in the line where you're selecting the message
element. You're missing the #
symbol to indicate that you're selecting an element by its ID.
Here are some possible solutions:
innerHTML
of an element before the element has been added to the DOM, it won’t work. You can either move your script tag down further or add your logic to a function which ought to be called when the document has been loaded. Here’s an example of how to do this:Check for typos: Make sure that you’re using the correct spelling of innerHTML
. It’s case-sensitive and should be written in camelCase.
Use document.querySelector()
: If document.getElementById()
isn’t working, try using document.querySelector()
instead. Here’s an example:
document.querySelector("#ma").innerHTML = "HELLO";
defer
keyword: You can also use the defer
keyword with a script to execute it after the DOM has been initialized. Here’s an example:<script>
function myFunction(){
let user_input = document.querySelector("#user_input");
let message = document.querySelector("#message"); // Add # before message
message.innerHTML = "Welcome, user " + user_input.value; // Corrected innerHTML
}
</script>
By adding #
while assigning the messsage Id using querySelector the "#" is missing.
because you missed adding the "#" sign in your querySelector message
