ajax request :document.getElementByID('txtHint).innerHTML

Question

I have following in my HTML code:

<div id="txtHint"><b>Person info will be listed here.</b></div>

and I have following in my JavaScript:

document.getElementByID('txtHint').innerHTML = 'hi';

I have a problem; the code stops executing at the above JavaScript line. The statements following the above JavaScript line are not executed. However, statements preceding that line are correctly executed. I have checked this by using the alert function.

What is the problem?

Answer 1

Change that to getElementById with a lowercase 'd'.
