javascript - getElementById is returning undefined from a paragraph -


i'm trying retrieve value of <p> element "sections" , display in <p> element "ss" using getelementbyid. output 'undefined' when should 2. if use <input> element instead of

element works.

i've spent 6 hours looking answer. haven't found on site relates this.

<body>  <table id="solidtable">    <tr>         <td><p id="sections"></p></td>     <td><p id="ss"></p></td>       </tr>  </table>   

script:

<script>     document.getelementbyid("sections").innerhtml = 2;    y = document.getelementbyid("sections").value;    document.getelementbyid("ss").innerhtml = y;  </script> 

paragraph tags don't have value property. use innerhtml correct value.

change

y = document.getelementbyid("sections").value; 

to

y = document.getelementbyid("sections").innerhtml; //                                      ^^^^^^^^^
