I don't know what a "variable" is in this context: DOM isn't a
programming language and doesn't have any variables.
If you're looking for an element with that as its id, switch to the
HTML panel and do a search for the string.
Alternatively, if you know the id exactly, go to the Console panel and
type "getElementById('<the id>')" in the command line.
