Removing HTML Element by Id
<p>I am using the following code to remove an element from the DOM tree: </p>

<pre><code> function onItemDeleted(name) {

           $("#" + name).remove();                       

       }
</code></pre>

<p>Would this be bad for performance since I am not indicating any parent for the element. The element is a TR contained in a TABLE element. The DOM search for this element will start at the top which might be BODY. So would it be something like this: </p>

<p>BODY => DIV => TABLE => TR (found) </p>

<p>If I find the parent of TR which is TABLE would the search be like this: </p>

<p>TABLE -> TR </p>

<p>I don't know if above will be true since I think search will always start at the root node. </p>
