<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>    
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>mystuff</title>    
<script>
  
  function logKey(e) {
    console.log("at logKey");
    //console.log(e);
    //log.value = ${e.code};
  }

<body>

<input type="text" id="inp" value="typehere"></input>
<p id="log"></p>
<script>
  
  var inp = document.getElementById('inp');
  var log = document.getElementById('log');
  inp.onkeyup = logKey;
  console.log(inp);

</script>
</body>
</html> 

i get a console log error report saying that on line 16 'inp' is undefined. I am 84.5 and trying to learn how to generate and interact with a web page. i wrote my first program in 1960 and have extensive C# experience but web programming seems to be more about where things are placed rather than what they do. Yes, i have history off.

It works for me. Perhaps a cache issue.
