I’m trying to use Google’s Images API to search an image and put it into my html document as a div. This is what I have so far, but nothing seems to be appearing. This is parts from http://code.google.com/apis/imagesearch/v1/devguide.html. This is my first time using an API, so I’m not sure what is really going on.

google.load('search', '1');
function searchComplete(searcher) {
// Check that we got results
if (searcher.results && searcher.results.length > 0) {
// Grab our content div, clear it.
var contentDiv = document.getElementById('content');
contentDiv.innerHTML = '';
// Loop through our results, printing them to the page.
var results = searcher.results;
for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
// For each result write it's title and image to the screen
var result = results[i];
var imgContainer = document.createElement('div');
var title = document.createElement('h2');
// We use titleNoFormatting so that no HTML tags are left in the title
title.innerHTML = result.titleNoFormatting;
var newImg = document.createElement('img');
// There is also a result.url property which has the escaped version
newImg.src = result.tbUrl;
imgContainer.appendChild(title);
imgContainer.appendChild(newImg);
// Put our title + image in the content
contentDiv.appendChild(imgContainer);
}
}
}
function onload() {
// Our ImageSearch instance.
var imageSearch = new google.search.ImageSearch();
// Restrict to extra large images only
imageSearch.setRestriction(google.search.ImageSearch.RESTRICT_IMAGESIZE,
google.search.ImageSearch.IMAGESIZE_MEDIUM);
// Here we set a callback so that anytime a search is executed, it will call
// the searchComplete function and pass it our ImageSearch searcher.
// When a search completes, our ImageSearch object is automatically
// populated with the results.
imageSearch.setSearchCompleteCallback(this, searchComplete, [imageSearch]);
// Find me a beautiful car.
imageSearch.execute("Subaru STI");
}
google.setonloadCallback(onload);

Thanks in advance!
It can’t work because you are looking for a HTMLElement that has the ID=’content’, you haven´t anyone element with that ID
