To reference an element by id  you need to use the   qualifier   Try   alert     link1   text       To replace it  you could use       link1   text  New text      The  html   function would work in this case too

link1   text  Replacement text      The  text   method drops the text you pass it into the element content  Unlike using  html     text   implicitly ignores any embedded HTML markup  so if you need to embed some inline  lt span gt    lt i gt   or whatever other similar elements  use  html   instead
