In Gtk-Webkit browser,  we are facing issues with respect to accessing DOM
elements directly, without using getElementById() from inside javascripts. We
have many XHTML pages written already, without using getElementById() and all
the pages are perfectly working fine in Opera. 

As “Chrome” is built using webkit, I tried testing the pages on ‘Chrome’. To my
surprise, the same files worked fine in ‘Chrome’.

Then, I tried with Safari, (latest nightly updated), the behavior is same as
Gtk-Webkit. It throws, “Can’t  find variable: DOM element name”
