How to set value inside div in JS

I have some code that looks like this:

document.getElementById("error").style.display = 'block';

and when this happens I also want to display the error that is supposed to be shown which is stored in another JS variable. How can I add the value of that variable to the div which has id="error"

Thanks!

var displayDiv = document.getElementById('error');
displayDiv.style.display = 'block';
displayDiv.innerHTML = yourVariable;

document.getElementById('error').innerHTML = variable

(using jQuery would be easier.
