Solution

  • If you open up the developer tools (F12) in your browser you will see the following error message repeating:

    Uncaught TypeError: document.getElementByClass is not a function at myTimer
    

    Simply put, getElementByClass is a non-existent function. There's a getElementsByClassName function on the document object which you could use.

    But, I'd recommend using the document.querySelector function which uses the CSS syntax to select the element you want. It returns a single element node. If you need to operate on multiple elements, then use its counterpart, the document.querySelectorAll function, which will return a collection of element nodes.

    So here's the code that you can use in your myTimer function:

    document.querySelector(".marquee .img-responsive").src="3.jpg"
