toggle1.addEventListener is not a function

Comment

There are two possible **solutions** of this `element.addEventListener is not a function` error-

  1. Treat the variable containing `document.getElementsByClassName("button")` as an array and be specific when using an event listener.
Example -

    `element[0].addEventListener('click' , showComment , false )`


  2. Use id for selecting that specific element. 
Example- 

    `document.getElementById('button')`
