How to change div border-color by input value?

My Code

<div id=divx"> </div>
<button onClick=""> </button>

<script>
function myFunction() {
  var color = document.getElemntByID("inpx").value; 
  document.getElementById("divx").style.borderColor = color;
}
</script>

  • Don't use on* inline JS handlers/attributes. Use Element.addEventListener(). JS should in in one place only, and that's either your JavaScript tag or file.
  • getElemntByID should be getElementById
  • Use input type="color"

Create a reusable setBorderColor(Element, color) function:

const EL = (sel, EL) => (EL||document).querySelector(sel);
const setBorderColor = (el, color) => el.style.borderColor = color;

const EL_inpx = EL("#inpx");
const EL_divx = EL("#divx");

EL_inpx.addEventListener("input", () => {
  setBorderColor(EL_divx, EL_inpx.value);
});

setBorderColor(EL_divx, EL_inpx.value);
#divx {border: 10px solid transparent;}
<input id="inpx" type="color" value="#ff0088">
<div id="divx">test</div>

    down-voted for following reason: It has no check if the value is a valid color format (Hex, RGA, color-name, rgba...). an `input type="color"` would have been more appropiate. – tacoshy Oct 27 '21 at 15:36
  • I've now updated my answer to include a check for valid colors, and added an `input type="color"` – Patrick Miah Nov 03 '21 at 11:58

try this: run

function myFunction() {
  const color = document.getElementById("inpx").value;
  document
    .getElementById("divx")
    .setAttribute("style", "background-color:" + color);
}
