How to reference DOM in Firefox extension popup
I am trying to reference the DOM in this Firefox popup so that I can change the value of it:
But i'm not too sure on how to go about that. I have tried Jquery and Document references, but they do not work.
<body>
<div id="walrusContainer">hello</span>
<script id="modalScript"></script>
</body>
I am trying to reference the "walrusContainer" in the popup.
edit
That is what I have attempted in trying to reference the 'modalScript' script and changing its src. This did not work, along with the 'walrusContainer' div where $('#walrusContainer').text('change') didn't work either.
javascript jquery html firefox

hi, show what you have tried. For example with jquery you can use $('#walrusContainer') to reference your div

Hello, I have tried calling $('#walrusContainer') in js, and also document.getElementById('walrusContainer') in the console. So far, the DOM can't seem to figure out where to find the div.

You have errors in your code. you have an open div but you close it with a span. <div id="walrusContainer">hello</div> and with jquery $('#walrusContainer').text('new text'); But, please, don't post code as image!!!
