What's the difference between document.getElementById(“test”).value and document.getElementById(“test”)[removed]

Question

document.getElementById(\"test\").value

document.getElementById(\"test\").innerHTML

Does the first mean the address and the second mean the value

Answer 1

Many elements in HTML can have an ID, so the definition of value will change for each.

value will be essentially what that element understands as a value. For example, an would give you the text inside.

innerHTML will be what HTML code is inside. For example, a would have its child TD's, plus whatever else is in there.

value and innerHTML can (usually) be written to, as well as read.
