How to get the div id value
If div has 'runat=server' then the ID can be accessed as:

JavaScript

// Access the div with it's ClientID
var divToAccess = document.getElementById("<%=whateverIsDivId.ClientID%>");

If div is a general HTML control without runat=server,

JavaScript

// Access the div with it's ID
var divToAccess = document.getElementById("whateverIsDivId");
