Accessing objects within objects in the DOM?

How do I accesss the div the id 950 in the example below using javascript?

<ins>
<div>
<div>
<div id="950"></div>
</div>
</div>
</ins>

A simple getelementbyid do开发者_JS百科esn't work...

document.getElementById('950');

getElementById always returns the requested element, without regard nesting level. Something else must be going on here. For example, what is the purpose of the ins tag in your example?

"id" can't begin with a number. See this: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/types.html#type-name

Everything else is ok.

The ID attribute should start with a letter. Perhapse that is what causing JS parser to return an error.

make sure you are calling document.getElementById('950'); after dom elements are created.

Try shifting your code at the bottom of the page!!
