CodePudding user response：

The CSS id selector uses the ID attribute of an HTML element to select one unique element on a page. To use an ID selector in CSS, you write a hashtag # followed by the ID of the element but there is no need and actually very confusing and wrong to add the # in the value of the attribute.

Bottom line, you need to remove the # from the id attribute. change it from:

<div id="#myAjax"> // wrong

To

 <div id="myAjax"> // correct

CodePudding user response：

Remove # from the component div id: <div id="myAjax"></div>

CodePudding user response：

<div id="#myAjax">

in this line you should not use '#'
use

<div id="myAjax">
