HTML| DOM Variable Object

Last Updated : 18 Jan, 2019

The DOM Variable Object is used to represent HTML <var> element. The var element is accessed by getElementById().

Syntax:

var element = document.getElementById("ID");

Where “id” is the ID assigned to the “var” tag.

Example-1:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  
<head>
    <title>var tag</title>
</head>
<style>
    body {
        text-align: center;
    }
      
    .sudo {
        font-size: 40px;
        font-weight: bold;
        color: green;
    }
      
    .geeks {
        font-size: 25px;
        font-weight: bold;
    }
</style>
  
<body>
    <div class="sudo">GeeksForGeeks</div>
    <div class="geeks">DOM var Object</div>
    <var id="GFG">GeeksforGeeks Variable</var>
    <br>
    <br>
    <button onclick="myGeeks()">Submit</button>
    <script>
        function myGeeks() {
            var g = document.getElementById("GFG");
            g.style.color = "red";
