Error with getElementById(id).remove() in IE11

Question

I have this code:

document.getElementById(id).remove();

But, IE give me an error with this function. Do you know an other way for make this remove?

Answer 1

Use this code instead:

var child = document.getElementById(id);
child.parentNode.removeChild(child);

Answer 2

Use the pollyfill from MDN

if (!('remove' in Element.prototype)) {
    Element.prototype.remove = function() {
        if (this.parentNode) {
            this.parentNode.removeChild(this);
        }
    };
}
