Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'appendChild' of null

Question

I\'m getting the following error

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property \'appendChild\' of null

myRequest.onreadystatechange @ script.js

Answer 1

those getting querySelector or getElementById that returns the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'appendChild' of null

or any other property, even if you have a class name or id in the HTML

don't use (defer as it is too much browser dependent.)

  //don't use this

instead, put all your code in 'script.js' inside

$(document).ready(function(){
    //your script here.
}
