Edit Request Tool.js
[edit]Hello! I love your Edit Request Tool.js, but lately have been having some issues with it not working. Wondering if you can help? When I try to close a request as "Done" I am getting the following JS error:
index.php?title=User:Terasail/Edit_Request_Tool.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript:364 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'classList')
at saveResponseERT (index.php?title=User:Terasail/Edit_Request_Tool.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript:364:19)
Doesn't always happen, but more often then not... Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 03:36, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
