Problems with getElementById()

It makes since that, when working with javascript, document.getElementById() can't find the Id of an object that hasn't yet been added to the DOM, however when I nest document.getElementById() in a function and call it after the object has been created, document.getElementById() still can't find the object.

is there a way around this? if not, can someone at least explain to me why it doesn't work?

Thank You
