Javascript function paramenters

I am confused on a task I have been given:

Function: takes 2 parameters, a string and a label id and writes the string value to the text of the label

• Example:

changeLabel('mylabel1', ‘label1’);

should change the text value of

‘<label id="label1">Form Label1</label>’

to

‘<label id="label1">mylabel1</label>’

I am not sure where to put the variables which need to be passed in, here is my code but it will not validate when it is tested.

function changeLabel('mylabel1', 'label1'){
    document.getElementById("label1").innerHTML = mylabel1;
}

changeLabel('mylabel1', 'label1');

Can someone please help?

You can't define function with strings as parameters. you should do it like this:

function changeLabel(text, id){
    document.getElementById(id).innerHTML = text;
}

changeLabel('mylabel1', 'label1');
