I am trying to create a DIV using javascript and assigning some width/height and color to it, but its not working. However, if I use the code below the div gets created but it's not visible on the screen. And if I use the function <code>createDiv()</code> it does not work.</p> <pre><code>divCreate.id=nameId; divCreate.width = width; divCreate.height = height; divCreate.background = color; divCreate.backgroundColor = "Red"; document.body.appendChild(divCreate); </code></pre>
