Comments disappear after refreshing site

I'm trying to make a simple comment system. It display comments, but when I refresh the page , all comments disappear, only to re-appear again when I add a new comment. I would like to see the comments even after refreshing the page. And preferably with time stamp and in reverse order: so latest on top.
const field = document.querySelector('textarea');
const comments = document.getElementById('comment-box');
// array to store the comments
var comments_arr = [];
if(!localStorage.commentData){localStorage.commentData = [];}
else{
comments_arr = JSON.parse(localStorage.commentData);
}
// to generate html list based on comments array
const display_comments = () => {
let list = '<ul>';
comments_arr.forEach(comment => {
list += `<li>${comment}</li>`;
})
list += '</ul>';
comments.innerHTML = list;
}
submit.onclick = function(event){
event.preventDefault();
const content = field.value;
if(content.length > 0){ // if there is content
// add the comment to the array
comments_arr.push(content);
localStorage.commentData = JSON.stringify(comments_arr);
// re-genrate the comment html list
display_comments();
// reset the textArea content
field.value = '';
}
}
html {
font-size: 14px;
font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif;
background-color: rgb(239, 239, 238);
}
/*Comment section*/

Adding window.addEventListener('load', display_comments) will fix
This will run the display_comments function on every refresh

You call display_comments after submitting a comment, but you don't call it anywhere else - it needs to be called when the page loads as well.

Autocomplete Search bar won't read my values

im trying to make a search bar for my website to redirect pepole on other pages of my website by selecting values from autocomplete suggestions, but when i select a suggestion (example:"Home") and hit search nothing happends, instead when i write the value (example:"chat") it works just fine and it redirects me to another page, my question is: what im doing wrong and why my autocompleted values are not seen by the searchbar?
Here is the code example for values "chat, Home, youtube"
function ouvrirPage() {
var a = document.getElementById("search").value;
if (a === "chat") {
window.open("/index.html");
}
if (a === "Home") {
window.open("/customizedalert.html");
}
if (a === "youtube") {
window.open("https://www.youtube.com/");
}
}
And here is the entire thing:
https://codepen.io/galusk0149007/pen/LYeXvww

Try this in your IDE : Clicking the search icon will navigate to your urls.
// getting all required elements
const searchWrapper = document.querySelector(".search-input");
const inputBox = searchWrapper.querySelector("input");
const suggBox = searchWrapper.querySelector(".autocom-box");
const icon = searchWrapper.querySelector(".icon");
let linkTag = searchWrapper.querySelector("a");
let webLink;
let suggestions = ['chat','home', 'youtube']
// if user press any key and release
inputBox.onkeyup = (e)=>{
let userData = e.target.value; //user enetered data
let emptyArray = [];
if(userData){
icon.onclick = ()=>{
webLink = `https://www.google.com/search?q=${userData}`;
linkTag.setAttribute("href", webLink);
linkTag.click();
}
emptyArray = suggestions.filter((data)=>{
//filtering array value and user characters to lowercase and return only those words which are start with user enetered chars
return data.toLocaleLowerCase().startsWith(userData.toLocaleLowerCase());
});
emptyArray = emptyArray.map((data)=>{
// passing return data inside li tag
return data = `<li>${data}</li>`;
});
searchWrapper.classList.add("active"); //show autocomplete box
showSuggestions(emptyArray);
let allList = suggBox.querySelectorAll("li");
for (let i = 0; i < allList.length; i++) {
//adding onclick attribute in all li tag
allList[i].setAttribute("onclick", "select(this)");
}
}else{
searchWrapper.classList.remove("active"); //hide autocomplete box
}
}
function select(element){
let selectData = element.textContent;
inputBox.value = selectData;
icon.onclick = ()=>{
webLink = `https://www.google.com/search?q=${selectData}`;
linkTag.setAttribute("href", webLink);
linkTag.click();
}
searchWrapper.classList.remove("active");
}
function showSuggestions(list){
let listData;
if(!list.length){
userValue = inputBox.value;
listData = `<li>${userValue}</li>`;
}else{
listData = list.join('');
}
suggBox.innerHTML = listData;
}
function ouvrirPage() {
var a = document.getElementById("search").value;
if (a === "chat") {
window.open("/index.html");
}
if (a === "Home") {
window.open("/customizedalert.html");
}
if (a === "youtube") {
window.open("https://www.youtube.com/");

Function removes items from localStorage only if run manually

I'm looking for advice/tips on how to fix a function that is supposed to remove items from localStorage. I'm following a tutorial by John Smilga that I found on Youtube. Although I've modeled my code on his, apparently, I have missed something.
This function works perfectly well if I run it manually from the console and pass in the id of the item that I want to remove from localStorage.
function removeFromLocalStorage(id) {
console.log(id);
let storageItems = getLocalStorage();
console.log(storageItems);
storageItems = storageItems.filter(function(singleItem) {
if (singleItem.id !== id) {
return singleItem;
}
})
console.log(storageItems);
localStorage.setItem("list", JSON.stringify(storageItems));
}
However, when this function is triggered by the deleteItem() function, it refuses to remove the item from localStorage. It still works, there are a bunch of console.logs in it that track its execution, and I can check that it receives the correct item id as the argument, but for some reason it doesn't filter out the item that needs to be removed. I am completely lost and have no idea how to identify the problem. I can't debug it with console.logs as I usually do. I will be very grateful if you help me find the problem. Any advice will be appreciated.
In case the entire code is needed, please find it below.

Your code is fine you just used the wrong comparison operator.
In your case you are comparing 2 IDs (operands) to see if they match up, so you should use normal operators such as (==, !=), but instead in your case, you have used strict operators which are used to compare the operand type and the operand itself.
You can learn more about Comparison Operators here.
Ultimatly,
In your function removeFromLocalStorage(id), you have an extra equal sign in your if function.
Instead of:
if (singleItem.id !== id) {
return singleItem;}
It should be:
if (singleItem.id != id) {
return singleItem;}
Hope this helps.

Javascript - I have two event listeners which run the same global scope function, but one of them isn't working...why?

For a bit of context, I'm currently new to Javascript and programming in general. I'm currently making a to-do list using vanilla javascript.
I want the user to be able to add an entry by either clicking on the "+" button, or by pressing the enter key in the input field.
Definitions:
let count = 0;
let getAdd = document.getElementById('add')
let getBackground = document.getElementById('background')
let getInputs = document.getElementsByClassName('input')
let getItems = document.getElementsByClassName('item')
let getName = document.getElementById('name')
The "keypress" event listener is working, but the "click" event listener is not. Here's the part in question:
function addevent() {
if (document.getElementById('name').value === '') {
alert("You need to type something in the input field first!")
return
}
if (getItems.length == 0) {
count += 1;
getBackground.innerHTML = ''
getBackground.style = null;
getBackground.innerHTML += '<div class="item"><div class="column input"></div><div id="spacer" class="column"></div><div id="bin" class="bin column row">X</div></div>'
getInputs[count - 1].innerHTML = document.getElementById('name').value
let heightplus = getBackground.offsetHeight;
getBackground.style.height = parseInt(heightplus + 35) + "px"
document.getElementById('name').value = ''
}
else {
count += 1
getBackground.innerHTML += '<div class="item"><div class="column input"></div><div id="spacer" class="column"></div><div id="bin" class="bin column row">X</div></div>'
getInputs[count - 1].innerHTML = document.getElementById('name').value
let heightplus = getBackground.offsetHeight;
getBackground.style.height = parseInt(heightplus + 35) + "px"
document.getElementById('name').value = ''
}
}
getAdd.addEventListener("click", addevent(), false);
getName.addEventListener("keypress", function enter(e) {
if (e.keyCode === 13) {
addevent();
}
}, false);
What am I missing here?

Thanks!

getAdd.addEventListener("click", addevent(), false);
should be
getAdd.addEventListener("click", addevent, false);
As per this example from https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/EventTarget/addEventListener :
// Function to change the content of t2
function modifyText() {
const t2 = document.getElementById("t2");
if (t2.firstChild.nodeValue == "three") {
t2.firstChild.nodeValue = "two";
} else {
t2.firstChild.nodeValue = "three";
}
}
// Add event listener to table
const el = document.getElementById("outside");
el.addEventListener("click", modifyText, false);

Ok so I found out that within the getAdd event listener, the problem was the pair of brackets after the function name; once these are removed, it works just fine!
If anyone reading wants to add to this with their wisdom, knowledge and experience, or perhaps suggest any other improvements, please do!
Thanks!

Oh, you solved it. I just tried it out and modified something in the index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>

<div id="add" onclick="addevent()">+</div>
</div>

I added onclick="addevent()" , and It works

My question is how can I transform this code into a responsive site.
Everything is resizing normally, except I cannot seem to resize my table and form. Could somebody help me?

A few things going on here.
First, you don't have a set width on a few of your fields, so change:
fieldset{
border: 0px dotted red;
width: 400px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
to:
fieldset{
border: 0px dotted red;
width: 400px;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 100%;
}
Also change .headerbar from width: 988px; to width: 100%;.
For responsive frameworks, you need to ensure that you never have a set a fixed width without ensuring there is a max-width attached to it, otherwise your content size will never drop below the size of your fixed width.
Second, I noticed the following:
.leftbar{
width: 50%;
background: #EB593C;
min-height: 605px;
float: left;
border-radius: 4px;
border: 3px dashed #282827;
}
You didn't specifically call this out, but when I check your code in a smaller view, I notice that your width: 50%; is causing the backgrounds to look off, which does not seem to be your intention. I would recommend adding .leftbar { width: 100%; } as well as .rightbar { width: 100%; } inside of #media screen and (max-width:700px){
That just leaves the table. Tables do not automatically break down, so are generally not something we want to use when developing a responsive site, but of course sometimes there is no getting around this.
There are a few ways to tackle the issue with the table. One is to set the table to display:block; and apply overflow-x: scroll; to it inside of your #media screen and (max-width:700px){, which will allow the user to scroll left/right when viewing it from smaller screens. Another is to use one of the various Javascript plugins that can achieve this.
Hope this helps get you on the right track. Best of luck!

Do not set width for these
input,select{/*width: 400px;*/}
fieldset{/*width: 400px;*/}
If you are setting width obviously you cannot obtain a responsive layout
