Why don't people do this?

I found that you can refer to your document objects by ID directly.
Why is this not in common use?

for example:
This is the HTML for the table:

Code:

<table width="100%" id="myTable">

This is what I am talking about:

Code:

var lastrow = myTable.rows.length;

BTW, does anyone know if there are any problems using object.rows?

I believe this is an IE only thing, or maybe it only works for elements directly visible on the page.

>>BTW, does anyone know if there are any problems using object.rows?

Never heard of it :D

HTH,
