How can I get rid of this error.

I'm working with a project which has a few buttons with EventListeners. But my buttons aren't working & in the console I'm getting this error, "Cannot read property addEventListeners of null". Although I put my js code at the bottom of the document. Please someone help me.

// Can you try this code below. It should work: window.onload = function() { document.getElementById("btn").addEventListener("click", myFunction); } function myFunction() { alert("hello"); }

The problem is the id is not the same as the element in HTML So it should be: document.getElementById("btn") not document.getElementById("demo")
