NISHA QURESHI: correct link is http://code.sololearn.com/WgU5IddVhcPC/ As guessed by Janning⭐ your JS code is executed before the page element you're trying to access is available (loaded), as the JS tab in code playground is linked to the Html tab/code in the <head> section: you need to wrap your code inside a function assigned to the window.onload event to defer its execution after the page load was completed (and element with id "di" was available)... window.onload = function() { var a=document.getElementById("di"); a.innerHTML="hello"; };

Most likely you are running the script before loading the element you're trying to "get", so the function can't find the element. But really, you should be in the habit of linking the code so we can "look under the hood" per se, so that we're not leading you on a wild goose chase.
