\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

\n ```\n\n2. **Use `window.onload`**: \n To ensure that the JavaScript runs after the DOM is fully loaded, you can wrap the `setup` function call in a `window.onload` event.

\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

\n ```\n\n2. **Modify `getElectronDotStructure` Function**: To ensure that the elements are only accessed after they are fully available in the DOM, make sure your `setup` function is being called correctly after the DOM has loaded.\n\n3. **Ensure Proper Element Selection**: The error line `52:31` corresponds to this line in your `getElectronDotStructure` function:\n ```javascript\n select('#elementOutput').html(`Element: ${element.name} (${element.symbol})`);\n ```\n If `select('#elementOutput')` returns null, it indicates that the element wasn't found.\n\n4. **Wrap Setup in window.onload**: You already have the correct structure to call `setup` after the document loads, but ensure that you don’t have any code that runs before those elements are available. Here’s how you can make sure:\n\n ```javascript\n // script.js\n function setup() {\n createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight);\n background(135, 206, 235); // Sky blue background\n\n // Button click event\n const button = select('#submitButton');\n button.mousePressed(() => {\n const input = select('#elementSymbol').value(); // Get the input value\n getElectronDotStructure(input); // Get the electron dot structure\n });\n }\n\n // Call setup after the document has loaded\n window.onload = setup;\n ```\n\n### Try Running Again\n\nAfter verifying the above points, try running your project again.
