Description
Some parts of the JavaScript codebase lack proper null checks when manipulating DOM elements. This can lead to unexpected errors or crashes when trying to access or modify elements that might be null or undefined, especially when elements are dynamically created or loaded.
Reproduction
Expectation
The code should check if DOM elements exist before trying to manipulate them. Null checks should be added to ensure that DOM manipulations are only attempted when the element is properly loaded or exists in the document.
Environment
Additional context
These null checks are crucial when manipulating DOM elements that may not yet exist at the time of execution, especially when dealing with asynchronous content loading or user-triggered dynamic changes in the DOM.
