How to insert an image with Javascript? [closed]

I have image URL's in a js file as objects.

How do I grab those images and insert them into the HTML dynamically?

I have tried using id's and getElementById but that didn't work.

Please post your current relevant code you have tried to grab those images as we can't help you or see what is wrong with it without the code. See How to ask a good question and How to create a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example — Nope

Fixed HTML (switched classes and IDs to make IDs unique) and added an image ID for simplicity:

<div id="msgStyle1" class="message">Waiting for image</div> <div id="imgStyle1" class="message"> <img src="" id="image" /> </div>

JS:

document.getElementById('image').src = 'http://yourImagePathHere';
