Hi! I found this code from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7EOc4Nm8Po
I tried it and I am getting the following error message:
VM3051:2 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'style')
at :2:82

Any help is appreciated!

Yeah, this doesn't seem to work anymore.
Others have done similar things, but the Docs code seems to have changed.

From what I understand it is likely that you are referring to elements that don't exist anymore. That have been renamed or removed.
