Hi Robert, FWIW - Dojo's function is actually [window.]dojo.byId() and I believe that Yahoo's is [window.]YAHOO.util.get().

Mappings to getElementById in some popular JS libraries:
Yahoo UI: get()
Prototype.js: $()
MochiKit: $()
dojo: byId()
etc, etc.
I guess that's the nice thing about getElementsBySelector. It's like
picking 6 names all at once. :)
