Property ‘current’ does not exist on type ‘((instance: htmlinputelement | null) => void) | mutablerefobject‘.

Sure, here’s an example of how you can format the answer as HTML content in a div without the body, h1, and html tags:

“`html



Query: property ‘current’ does not exist on type ‘((instance: HTMLInputElement | null) => void) | MutableRefObject‘.

Explanation:

The error message indicates that you are trying to access the property ‘current’ on a type that does not have that property. It seems like you are working with React’s useRef hook, which can return two types of values: a function or an object. The error suggests that you are trying to use ‘current’ on a function instead of an object.

Example:

Let’s say you have a useRef hook like this: 


import React, { useRef } from 'react';

const InputComponent = () => {
    const inputRef = useRef(null);

    const handleButtonClick = () => {
        console.log(inputRef.current.value);
    };

    return (
        

            
            
        

    );
};

In the above example, the inputRef is defined with the type HTMLInputElement | null. This means that inputRef can either be null or an HTMLInputElement object. By using ‘current’, we can access the current value of the input field. However, if you mistakenly assign the inputRef to a function instead of an object, you will encounter the mentioned error.

To fix the error, make sure that you assign the ref correctly to the input element. For example, you can use the useRef hook like this: 


const inputRef = useRef<HTMLInputElement | null>(null);

By doing this, the useRef will correctly return the object with the ‘current’ property, allowing you to access the input value using ‘inputRef.current.value’.

In the above code, we create a `

` element with the id “answer” and format its content with HTML tags to include the query, explanation, and example. The CSS styling is also applied to the div to give it a light gray background and some padding.
