Writing into an HTML element
To write string/text into an HTML element, we use the following things:
- There must be an HTML element like paragraph, span, div etc.
- An HTML element must have an Id.
- We access the HTML element by using the id (to access an HTML element using Id, we use an HTML DOM method getElementbyId()).
- Then, we write the text to the HTML element by using an HTML DOM property innerHTML.
Example
In this example, we have two paragraphs with p1 and p2 ids, we are writing two different texts in these HTML elements (paragraphs).
<html>
<head>
<title>JavaScipt Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<p id="p1"></p>
<p id="p2"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("p1").innerHTML = "Hello world!";
document.getElementById("p2").innerHTML = 10+20;
</script>
</body>
</html>
Output
Hello world!
