Simple javascript in HTML macro : Confluence

Hello,

I tried to run very simple javascript inside HTML macro in Confluence page.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">

	function myFunction() {
  	document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "Paragraph changed.";
	}

</script>
</head>
<body>
                <h2>JavaScript in Head</h2>

				<p id="demo">A Paragraph.</p>

				<button type="button" id="buttonId" onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
</body>
</html>

The button is showed but when I click it, the function didn't work.

Any help?

Thanks,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Could you try to change the order like this?

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>

</head>
<body>
                <h2>JavaScript in Head</h2>

    <p id="demo">A Paragraph.</p>

    <button type="button" id="buttonId" onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>

<script type="text/javascript"> function myFunction() { document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "Paragraph changed."; }
</script>

</body>
</html>

Agreed!

The script executed before the component is created. document.getElementById("demo") will be return undefined
