Basically, I wanted to share with you a question: why the js breaks after multiple onmouseover calls over an element? The code snippet’s below to ease the error’s identification (log also below).

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading ‘classList’)

What I had tried before posting this:

Checking for any mistakes in the values;
Analyzing the function body;
Asking GPT.

No results for me.

Seems you are trying to use setTimeout as sleep sync function. Unfortunately you cannot do that, so you should use a promise to wait until setTimeout executes its callback. Othewise you have kinda callback mess that don’t sync with each other.

With async/await it’s easily manageable:

const timeout = async (fn, ...args) => new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(() => fn() + resolve(), ...args))

async function langPicker(buttonid){
    await animationForwarder('sectionlang1', 'sectionlang2', 'anim-switchByFadeIn-lang', 100)
    return timeout(langTextChange, 625, buttonid);
}
function langTextChange(buttonid){
    const subject1 = document.getElementById('sectionlang1');
    const subject2 = document.getElementById('sectionlang2');
    if(buttonid == 'cpp'){
        subject1.textContent = 'C++';
        subject2.textContent = 'C++ is one of the most renowned programming languages in the world';
    }
}
async function anFrwdDoubleExec(identifier, identifier2, identifier3, identifier4 ,anim_id, wait_time, anim_id2, wait_time2, secondExecutionWaitTime){
    await animationForwarder(identifier, identifier2, anim_id, wait_time);
    return timeout(() => animationForwarder(identifier3, identifier4, anim_id2, wait_time2), secondExecutionWaitTime);
}

function animationForwarder(identifier, identifier2, anim_id, wait_time){
    document.getElementById(identifier).classList.add(anim_id);
    if(identifier2 != 'skip'){
        return timeout(() => document.getElementById(identifier2).classList.add(anim_id), wait_time);
    }
}

The problem is that you do:
```
    subject1.textContent = 'C++';
    subject2.textContent = 'C++ is one of the most renowned programming languages in the world';
```
subject1 is the <h1 id="sectionlang1" element. This contains <span id="slash1-lang"> and <span id="slash2-lang">. When you replace the <h1> contents, the <span> is removed. So when you later call
```
anFrwdDoubleExec('sectionlang1', 'sectionlang2', 'slash1-lang', 'slash2-lang', 'anim-fadeintb', 250, 'anim-blink', 100, 0)
```
it tries to set the class of slash1-lang and slash2-lang, but they no longer exist so you get an error.

I’m not really sure what you’re trying to accomplish by replacing the contents of these elements. If you just want to prevent the error, check whether document.getElementById() returns anything. So replace
```
document.getElementById(identifier).classList.add(anim_id);
```
with
```
let el = document.getElementById(identifier);
if (el) {
    el.classList.add(anim_id);
}
```
