Answer 3

There could be a few issues here

Here are possible solutions:

1. Javascript loads before the DOM, so surround whatever is being called right away with window.onload { //your code here}

2. You possibly forgot quotes in getElementById()

Like this:
getElementById("MyElement");

3. You forgot the word "document".

document.getElementById("MyElement")

4.You're trying to get a class with getElementById(). To grab a class, use getElementsByClassName("Example")[1]
[1] represents the class. Since there can be multiple classes, you can use this to get a specific one.

5. You spelled the id wrong. Pretty sure we've all done this.

6. you forgot quotes in the HTML id deceleration. I've done this.
