You are missing a closing h2 tag  It should be    lt h2 gt  lt  -- Content -- gt  lt  h2 gt

You probably need something like   result className    red     In pure JavaScript you should use className to deal with classes  jQuery has an abstraction called addClass for it

User · Answer

You should be using className  result className    red

User · Answer

You can use result className    red    but you can also use result classList add  red     The  classList add str  way is usually easier if you need to add a class in general  and don t want to check if the class is already in the list of classes
