here is the code I'm trying to use, works in codepen but not on my site. The rest of the functions are working fine but this one is not.

document.getElementById("firstOpen").click();

here is the error chrome is throwing:

"Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'click' of null"

Not sure how to resolve this, it is part of a clickable tab system, all this is meant to do is open the first tab.

Thank you.

Why not provide a link to your codepen? – jpaugh Feb 06 '18 at 19:26

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with `click`. You must not have an element in the page with a ID of "firstOpen". – Carcigenicate Feb 06 '18 at 19:26
Yes. What @Carcigenicate said. Or that your script runs before the elements are available – Brian Feb 06 '18 at 19:29
