Typing Effect

The code works except one small problem, whenevr i use text like Lorem Ipsum and i copy and paste that into my code it does something strange, it doesnt fully type the text. Any clues on how to fix this? https://code.sololearn.com/WoSTUTdpj0Ob/?ref=app

Did you type in a text longer than 100 characters? There's a maximum of input characters, at least in sololearn...

onload just makes sure that the js is executed when the html is loaded

use window.onload when you are using Sololearn's javascript tab. It makes sure that the html is loaded first, so it can find the DOM elements.

It's trying to get the html element before it is loaded. Put all the js inside of window.onload = function() { // your js }

Maybe newline characters? You could try to remove them from the string before the animation starts

Okay, heres a better example, when you put into the prompt box and say “This is my demo” it will not make the demo come out, try it and youll see

What do you mean "it stops"? The text gets typed, then it stays on screen.

Your Mom Sololearn seems to have a limit on the length of the input in the prompt... maybe use a text input element instead? something like this: https://code.sololearn.com/WZPr0l9yHZaF/?ref=app
