37,739 PointsThe term "element" can refer to several things depending on which language your using. For the sake of aid, I'm going to assume you're referring to JavaScript definition, because it's relatively the most frequent.
To add a new element to the HTML DOM, you must create the element (element node) first, and then append it to an existing element. Here's an example:
//This code finds an existing element:
var parent = document.getElementById("div1");
//This code appends the new element to the existing element:
parent.appendChild(para);
Next time please reference the challenge &/ video you're working on in your question so we can all be on the same page.
