Why does my insert not work?

I have the following code and just cannot find out why doesn't it add the goal to my ForerunnerDB. I did everything as in the example in the ForerunnerDB manual.

Here is my index.html file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<html>
<head>
<title>Barebones todo</title>
<script src="./js/dist/fdb-all.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="scrypt.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>

<form onsubmit="return addGoal();">
  Enter goal: <input type="text"id="goalinput">
  <input type="submit">
</form>
<button type="button" onclick="retrieve()">Retrieve</button>
<div id="p"></div>

</body>

</html>

Here is my scrypt.js file:

var fdb = new ForerunnerDB();
var db = fdb.db("myDatabaseName");
var goalCollection = db.collection("goal");

function addGoal() {
    console.log("addig goal...");
    var newgoalname = document.getElementById("goalinput").value;
    console.log(newgoalname);
    goalCollection.insert({
        _id: 3,
    name: newgoalname,
    order: 99
});

    };
function retrieve() {
    var findings = goalCollection.find({});
console.log(findings);

//document.getElementById("paragraph").innerHTML = findings;
document.getElementById("p").innerHTML = findings;
}

As @Luigi Cerone noted the issue was the space between

<input type="text"id="goalinput">
