I am trying to link my HTML home page to an external css stylesheet and an external javascript(.js) file. For whatever reason depending on which order I list them in the HTML file, only one of them will work. I used a simple alert box in the Javascript file to test if it is working and it only does when the javascript file is linked first. Here is my work...(I am an HTML noob by the way also)
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8 />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="trinity.css" />
<Script src="churchJavaScript.js"></script>
<title>Trinity Temple</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="CompleteWrapper">
<header id="headerSection">
<h1> Trinity Temple</h1>
<h3> And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: </br>
why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you? Nehemiah 6:3 </h3>

here is the javascript code in the external file...
window.addEventListener("load", todaysDate, false);
function todaysDate(){
var currentTime = new Date();
var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1;
var day = currentTime.getDate();
var year = currentTime.getFullYear();
var completeDate = document.getElementById("footerSection");
footerSection.innerHMTL = "Today's Date: " +completeDate;
alert(month + "/" + day + "/" + year);
}
window.addEventListener("load", todaysDate, false);
Also, here is the code in the service information html doc...
