The DOM dt object is used to represent the HTML <dt> element. The dt element can be accessed using the getElementById() method.
Syntax:
document.getElementById("id");
Where ‘id’ is the ID assigned to the dt tag.
Example-1:
html
<!DOCTYPE html>
< html >
< body >
< h1 style = "color:green;" >
GeeksForGeeks
</ h1 >
< h2 >DOM DT Object</ h2 >
< dl >
< dt id = "id" >Sorting</ dt >
< dd >Merge sort</ dd >
</ dl >
< button onclick = "Geeks()" >Click Here!</ button >
< p id = "demo" style = "color:green" ></ p >
< script >
function Geeks() {
var doc = document.getElementById("id").innerHTML;
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = doc;
}
</ script >
</ body >
</ html >

var doc1 = document.createElement("DT");
var txt1 = document.createTextNode("Sorting");
doc1.appendChild(txt1);
doc1.setAttribute("id", "dt");
document.getElementById("dl").appendChild(doc1);
// Creating a dd element
