If you are trying to do something like pass a variable then just use a custom attribute:<br />
<br />
&lt;div id=&quot;theid&quot; custom=&quot;yourdata&quot;&gt;<br />
<br />
then in the script<br />
<br />
somevar=document.getElemen<wbr />tById('the<wbr />div').cust<wbr />om;<br />
<br />
not very elegant, and not a good practice but ...<br />

@CD&amp; - best to use the new html5 convention which is to prefix any custom attributes with 'data-' as per post above.<br />
<br />
As of HTML5 it is good practice - convention was provided specifically for custom storing of data in elements to prevent having messy code as suggested by the author.

Yeah I didn't see your post or I would not have posted. &nbsp;I agree data- is appropriate.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Ive got a load of divs on a page and would like to store some information on the individual divs, that I can pull in through a javascript function.<br />
<br />
My only idea Ive got is to use the ID such as divButton_4322323_233422_3<wbr />1123 and then split the id using _. So if I needed to find 4322323 I could use 
<pre><code id="code-10-27838774-1">var parts = id.split(&quot;_&quot;) </code></pre>
and then use 
<pre><code id="code-10-27838774-2">parts[1];</code></pre>
<br />
Does anyone else have any suggestion on storing information inside a div?<br />
<br />
Thank you

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a language used for describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markup language. Usually used to change web pages and user interfaces written in HTML, it can also be applied to any kind of XML document. CSS is designed primarily to distinguish the content of a document from its presentation.

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

jQuery (Core) is a cross-browser JavaScript library that provides abstractions for common client-side tasks such as Document Object Model (DOM) traversal, DOM manipulation, event handling, animation and Ajax. jQuery also provides a platform to create plugins that extend jQuery's capabilities beyond those already provided by the library.
