My code is as follows
;(function(window){
var $description_window= document.querySelector('.mg_post_description'),
$headings= document.querySelectorAll('.mg_blog_main_content h3'),
$paragraph = document.createElement('p');
for (var j = 0; j < $headings.length; j++) {
var $headingChildren=$headings[j].cloneNode(true).childNodes;
$paragraph.appendChild($headingChildren[j]);
}
$description_window.append($paragraph);
})(window);
Here what I am trying to do is; to copy the h3 tags of the content box. Then create a paragraph element. Then append the p tags with collected h3 tags. However, I get the following error on running this.
Failed to execute appendChild on Node: parameter 1 is not of type Node.
;(function(window){
var $description_window= document.querySelector('.post_description'),
$headings= document.querySelectorAll('.post_description h3'),
$paragraph = document.createElement('p');
for (var j = 0; j < $headings.length; j++) {
var $headingChildren=$headings[j].cloneNode(true).childNodes;
$paragraph.appendChild($headingChildren[j]);
}
$description_window.append($paragraph);
})(window);.post_description{

<div class="post_description"></div>Could someone please explain why this occurs and how to solve this
Thanks
To achieve expected result, use below option
function addElem() {
var mElem = document.querySelector('.mg_post_description')
var hElems = document.getElementsByTagName('H3');
var node = document.createElement("P");
for (var i = 0; i < hElems.length; i++) {
var textnode = document.createTextNode(hElems[i].innerHTML);
var cloneElem = node.cloneNode(true);
cloneElem.appendChild(textnode);
mElem.appendChild(cloneElem);
}
};
addElem()
