Type error when using with react and typescript

[lilkahuna]

Has anyone used email js with react and typescript, I keep getting an error with the useRef hook which says I need it to be set to HTMLFormElement. I gave the useRef hook the type it siad it wanted but still got an error. Does anyone have a solution or fix for this?

Error:
The 3rd parameter is expected to be the HTML form element or the style selector of form

const formRef = useRef<HTMLFormElement>(null);

I still get an error of argument of type null is not assignable to parameter of type string | HTMLFormElement. Type null is not assignable to type string | HTMLFormElement

There are many ways to solve your syntax issue, for example as below.

formRef.current!

Keep in mind that you are better off asking questions about TypeScript in the TS community.
