title: ajax request :document.getElementByID('txtHint).innerHTML
body: <p>I have following in my HTML code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div id="txtHint"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Person info will be listed here.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I have following in my JavaScript:</p>
  
  <pre><code>document.getElementByID('txtHint').innerHTML = 'hi';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have a problem; the code stops executing at the above JavaScript line. The statements following the above JavaScript line are not executed. However, statements preceding that line are correctly executed. I have checked this by using the <code>alert</code> function.</p>
  
  <p>What is the problem?</p>
