JavaScript Tutorial - document.getElementById

document.getElementById is a method in JavaScript, which is used to accesses the first element with the specified id. Where ID is required. We can take a simple example of displaying date in a WebPage on button Click.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function displayDate()
{
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML=Date();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>

<h1>Date Example in JavaScript</h1>
<p id="demo">click to Display Date.</p>

<button type="button" onclick="displayDate()">Display Date</button>

</body>
</html>
