Apending to the body

[bleak26]

Plese could u tell me how to attach the newly created div tag to the body using the dom, so as to make it appear on the page.

Thank you for your help.

var newdiv = document.createElement('div');

var divIdName = 'newdivnbyme';

newdiv.setAttribute('id',divIdName);

var newdiv = document.createElement('div');
var divIdName = 'newdivnbyme';
newdiv.setAttribute('id',divIdName);
document.body.appendChild(newdiv);

[edit]:
or for the more pure DOM method approach:

var newdiv = document.createElement('div');
var divIdName = 'newdivnbyme';
newdiv.setAttribute('id',divIdName);
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(newdiv);
