Code Not Working

I was trying to do a code using what I learned about DOM so far, and it's not working, the console is saying that the var with a element from HTML is null. https://code.sololearn.com/WDtw9AtV56v0/?ref=app

1. Put your codes in window.onload 2. Demo: https://code.sololearn.com/WgloMkSRQhmx/?ref=app 3. Explanation: The codes in JS tab runs before the DOM exists. Because they are put inside head element when compiling. 4. Further explanation : Another way to solve this is putting the scripts at end of body element. 5. This code by Calvin best demonstrates the sequence of execution : https://code.sololearn.com/W8qiO41gHNfu/?ref=app
