I couldn't find element by angular.element('#id')

Question

I used this code to find my elements in the angular controller:

var el = angular.element('#id');

But this doesn't work. why?

Is it true that I use jQuery to find my elements ?

I confused my code doesn't work any more.

Please try:

angular.element(document.getElementById("id"));

It works but why `angular.element('#id')` worked before? – Apr 14 '17 at 09:53
I don't know, always I use this. – Apr 14 '17 at 10:05

i think i figured out your problem. you used to earlier versions of **angularjs 1.x** before and now you're working with newer one.this function was changed after some versions – Majid Parvin Apr 14 '17 at 10:11
