I am trying to create a really simple example of using Stripe payments.


This is my code:




// Create a Stripe client
var stripe = Stripe('pk_test_XSHE4IYLLy9qCPe7lW7pK4ZE');

// Create an instance of Elements
var elements = stripe.elements();

// Custom styling can be passed to options when creating an Element.
// (Note that this demo uses a wider set of styles than the guide below.)
var style = {
base: {
color: '#32325d',
lineHeight: '24px',
fontFamily: 'Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif',
fontSmoothing: 'antialiased',
fontSize: '16px',
'::placeholder': {
color: '#aab7c4'
}
},
invalid: {
color: '#fa755a',
iconColor: '#fa755a'
}
};

// Create an instance of the card Element
var card = elements.create('card', {style: style});

// Add an instance of the card Element into the `card-element` <div>
card.mount('#card-element');

// Handle real-time validation errors from the card Element.
card.addEventListener('change', function(event) {
var displayError = document.getElementById('card-errors');
if (event.error) {
displayError.textContent = event.error.message;
} else {
displayError.textContent = '';
}
});

// Handle form submission
var form = document.getElementById('payment-form');
form.addEventListener('submit', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();

stripe.createToken(card).then(function(result) {
if (result.error) {
// Inform the user if there was an error
var errorElement = document.getElementById('card-errors');
errorElement.textContent = result.error.message;
} else {
// Send the token to your server
stripeTokenHandler(result.token);
}
});
});

.StripeElement {
background-color: white;
padding: 8px 12px;
border-radius: 4px;
border: 1px solid transparent;
box-shadow: 0 1px 3px 0 #e6ebf1;
-webkit-transition: box-shadow 150ms ease;
transition: box-shadow 150ms ease;
}

.StripeElement--focus {
box-shadow: 0 1px 3px 0 #cfd7df;
}

.StripeElement--invalid {
border-color: #fa755a;
}

.StripeElement--webkit-autofill {
background-color: #fefde5 !important;
}

Credit or debit card
</label>
<div id=card-element>
<!-- a Stripe Element will be inserted here. -->
</div>

<!-- Used to display form errors -->
<div id=card-errors></div>
</div>

<button>Submit Payment</button>
</form>

</body>
</html>




I followed the example from Stripe.


This is the error that I got from the Javascript console:


Uncaught Error: The selector you specified (#card-element) applies to no DOM elements that are currently on the page.
Make sure the element exists on the page before calling mount().
at new t (js.stripe.com/:1)
at t.value (js.stripe.com/:1)

Based on the error, I think the Stripe JavaScript could not find any #card-element, but it is there.


This could be a dumb question, but this is my first time using Stripe, so it would be great if someone could help me. Thank you so much.

Don't add the script in the head, instead, add it right before you close the body.



<html lang= en>
<head>
<meta charset=utf-8>
<meta http-equiv=X-UA-Compatible content=IE=edge>
<meta name=viewport content=width=device-width, initial-scale=1>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action=/charge method=post id=payment-form>
<div class=form-row>
<label for=card-element>
Credit or debit card
</label>
<div id=card-element>
<!-- a Stripe Element will be inserted here. -->
</div>
<!-- Used to display form errors -->
<div id=card-errors></div>
</div>
<button>Submit Payment</button>
</form>
<script src=https://js.stripe.com/v3/></script>
</body>
</html>


Putting your script at the bottom ensures that the DOM is rendered prior to executing the script, so that'll do the trick!
