Element.id: Can I Use It This Way?

[tinfanide]

  var div = document.createElement("div");  div.setAttribute("id","div1");// div.id = "div1"  document.getElementById("div1").setAttribute("style","background-color: white; position: absolute; left: 100px; top: 100px; width: 500px; height: 500px;");  document.body.appendChild(div); 

Can I refer to the element id within JS in this way?

Yep, you can, but you need to insert (append) the newly created div, into the body, before you get the element with:

document.getElementById()

.

Thanks for the reminder.I reverse the order of those lines:

var div = document.createElement("div");  div.setAttribute("id","div1");// div.id = "div1"  document.body.appendChild(div);  document.getElementById("div1").setAttribute("style","background-color: white; position: absolute; left: 100px; top: 100px; width: 500px; height: 500px;");

And in this order it works.
