Accepted answer
HTML File
```
  Display Hostname


  Hostname:
  

  
```
Javascript file
```
window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
  var hostname = window.location.hostname;
  var hostnameElement = document.getElementById('hostname');
  hostnameElement.textContent = hostname;
});
```
In this example, we have an HTML page with an
heading and a
paragraph element. The JavaScript code listens for the DOMContentLoaded event to ensure the HTML has finished loading before attempting to access and modify the elements.

The window.location.hostname retrieves the hostname, and document.getElementById('hostname') selects the paragraph element with the id "hostname". Then, we update the text content of the paragraph element using textContent to display the hostname.
