dojo/dijit BorderContainer declarative example - but programmatic

I'm trying to write the declarative example in a programmatic way, but so far no success. http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/dijit/layout/BorderContainer.html

dojo.require("dijit.layout.ContentPane");
dojo.require("dijit.layout.BorderContainer");

dojo.addOnLoad(function() {

    var borderContainer = new dijit.layout.BorderContainer({
        design: "sidebar",
        gutters: true,
        liveSplitters: true,
        id: "borderContainer"
    });

   borderContainer.placeAt(dojo.body(), "last");

    var panelLeft = new dijit.layout.ContentPane({
        content: "<p>left</p>",
        splitter: true,
        region: "leading",
        style: "width: 300px;"
    });
    panelLeft.placeAt("borderContainer", "first");

    var panelRight = new dijit.layout.ContentPane({
        content: "<p>right</p>",
        splitter: true,
        region: "center"
    });
    panelRight.placeAt("borderContainer", "last");

});

CSS file: #borderContainer { width: 100%; height: 100%; }

You can see the code here: http://jsbin.com/inulig/27/edit#source

Thanks!

I found http://blog.garethj.com/2010/08/programmatic-page-layouts-using-dojo-and-existing-markup/ which gave me a lead to the issue.

I had to use borderContainer.addChild(contentPane) and not contentPane.placeAt(borderContainer, "last")

I'll leave the answer here in case other might get stumbled upon this too.
