How to access a DOM element in React? What is the equilvalent of document.getElementById() in React

Question

How do I select certain bars in react.js?

This is my code:

var Progressbar = React.createClass({
    getInitialState: function () {
        return {          


        

Answer 1

For getting the element in react you need to use ref and inside the function you can use the ReactDOM.findDOMNode method.

But what I like to do more is to call the ref right inside the event

 this.myTextInput = ref} />

This is some good link to help you figure out.
