Jump to PostContacts is our html element name ..
Your element will be like this <input type = "text" name = "contacts" />
Jump to PostTo clarify... There are some confusing responses in this thread. The OP is asking about getElementsByName not getElementById.
document.getElementsByName() returns a HTMLCollection of all the elements with a given value for the name attribute, commonly used when targeting input elements.
