i am trying to make a javascript stopwatch here and i want to add time to div.circle and i don't know whats wrong in this code please help me!! thanks
<-- this is html code --->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<title>stopwatch</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="box">
<h1>Stopwatch</h1>
<div class="circle"></div>
<div class="buttons">
<button>Start</button>
<button>Stop</button>
<button>Reset</button>
</div>
</div>
</body>
<script>
<-- this is js code -->
let min = 0;
let sec = 0;
let mil = 0;
let time = document.getElementsByClassName("circle");
time = min + " : " + sec + " : " + mil ;
time.innerHTML = time;
console.log (time);
</script>
</html>
let time = document.getElementsByClassName("circle");
time = min + " : " + sec + " : " + mil;
time.innerHTML = time;Those lines actually set the time variable as an element, but then break it and put it inside a string.
Should be like that:
const time = document.getElementsByClassName("circle");
time.innerHTML = min + " : " + sec + " : " + mil;Your code has some very fundamental pieces missing. I have changed it a bit to show something on button click but it will require way more efforts than that. I will highly recommend you to go through some tutorial in HTML, CSS, JS for a day or two.
const button = document.getElementsByTagName("button")[0];
button.onclick=() => {
let min = 0;
let sec = 0;
let mil = 0;
let time = document.getElementsByClassName("circle")[0];
let timeString = min + " : " + sec + " : " + mil ;
time.innerHTML = timeString;
console.log(timeString);
}
<div class="box">
<h1>Stopwatch</h1>
<div class="circle"></div>
<div class="buttons">
<button>Start</button>
<button>Stop</button>
<button>Reset</button>
</div>
</div>
