so i wrote this code that would create a list and then append an input to it on click. really simple. but the problem is it doesn't work and i have no idea why here is the code:
function pushing() {
var li = document.createElement("li");
var inputValue = document.getElementById("inp").value;
var pushchild = document.createTextNode(inputValue);
li.appendChild(pushchild);
}
sub.addEventListener("click", pushing);
the id inp is an input id. thank you
Your list item is never appended to a list element.
// Cache the elements,
// add the button listener,
// & focus on the input
const list = document.querySelector('ul');
const input = document.querySelector('#inp');
const sub = document.querySelector('#sub');
sub.addEventListener('click', pushing);
input.focus();
function pushing() {
const li = document.createElement('li');
const text = document.createTextNode(input.value);
li.appendChild(text);
// Adding the list item to the list element
list.appendChild(li);
}<input id="inp" />
<button id="sub">Click</button>
<ul></ul>Add this to the last line of your function. Append your newly created li element to the ul.
document.querySelectorAll(‘ul’).appendChild(newCreatedLi);
