In a function javascript how can we see the document changing effects first and then the alert () window?
in this example I want to see first how the text in paragraph "something" is changing in "new paragraph" and then the alert window. EXAMPLE: <body> <button onclick="myFunction()">change the paragraph </button> <p id="paragraph"> something </p> <script> function myFunction(){ var text=document.getElementById ('paragraph'); text.innerHTML="new paragraph"; var newText=document.getElementById ('paragraph').innerHTML; alert (newText); } </script> </body>

This is the only solution I've got for now
<script>
var newText;
function myFunction(){
var text=document.getElementById
('paragraph');
text.innerHTML="new paragraph";
newText=document.getElementById
('paragraph').innerHTML;
setTimeout(showAlertWindow,1000);
}
function showAlertWindow(){
alert (newText);
}
</script>
If you have anything else please post your code

After one second? Oh then yes, you need this
setTimeout(alert(newText), 1000);
