How to get < span> value？

Question

There are a piece of code,but can not use tag.

So,how do I get to the 1 2 3 4?

Answer 1

var test = document.getElementById( 'test' );

// To get the text only, you can use "textContent"
console.log( test.textContent ); // "1 2 3 4"

textContent is the standard way. innerText is the property to use for legacy IE. If you want something as cross browser as possible, recursively use nodeValue.
