Getting error "Cannot set property 'innerHTML' of undefined"

[ShagunMalik]

Whenever i'm trying to access data of <p> tag using getElementById in js, then the data is getting accessed but when i try to change the content of <p> tag in js using .innerHTML, I'm getting error UnCaught TypeError:Cannot set property 'innerHTML' of undefined.

How can it be resolved.

HTML

<p id="my-id"> </p>

Using Vanilla JavaScript

document.getElementById("my-id").innerHTML = "Some text";

Using jQuery

$("#my-id").text("Some text");
