#40840 — I can't get document.getElementById to work.

I have placed the javascript at the end of the body, so this part is not the problem. Also, this code works when I compile it in another program.

I am actually using TiddlyWiki5 with an inline JavaScript plugin.

This is the code I have:
```
<script>
var test = document.getElementById("div_name").innerHTML;
alert('test');
</script>
```
I am using a live preview editor, so with every keystroke, I get that alert. I keep getting that alert until I hit the capital "B", then the alert stops working.
Does anyone know what is wrong here?

Your description makes no sense. The only "capital B" involved is on
the first line of your script, but the alert is on the second line
of the script, so how can the alert possibly be happening when you
haven't typed it in yet?

The wrong part is likely at the code which handles the keystroke.
