Answer 1

It's preferable to use

$("#error").html('Test message here') 

instead of simply

.text('Text Msg');

Answer 2

 $('#error').text('Test message here');

Answer 3

You create a new div and set its text, but you don't insert it anywhere. What you need to do is:

var el = $('<div id="error">').text('Test message here');
$(document).append(el);

or, if the div is already there:

$("#error").text('Test message here');

Answer 4

Try:

$('<div id="error"></div>').text('Test message here');

You also need to insert the new element somewhere in the page.
