Hi group,

This seems basic to me, but I can't find the solution.

I have a table that grows tr's and td's.
At one point I have something like this:
var new_tr = tableRef.insertRow(newRowNum);

How can I give this new tr (new_tr) an ID that can be referenced by means of
getElementById() ??

I hoped for something like:
new_tr.setID("row20");
but that doesn't fly. :-/

Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Erwin Moller

new_tr.id = "row20";
