ASP.NET AJAX Best Practices: Avoid using your own method while there is one
Avoid implementing your own getElementById method that will cause script to DOM marshalling overhead. Each time you traverse the DOM and look for certain HTML element requires the JavaScript interpreter to marshalling script to DOM. It's always better to use getElementById of document object. So, before you write a function, make sure similar functionality can be achieved from some other built-in functions.
