Name

Style — Cascading Style Sheet attributes

Availability

Internet Explorer 4, Netscape 6

Synopsis

                  htmlElement.style

Properties

The Style object has properties corresponding to each of the CSS attributes supported by the browser.

Description

The properties of the Style object correspond directly to the CSS attributes supported by the browser. For compatibility with JavaScript syntax, however, hyphenated CSS attribute names are written with mixed capitalization with the hyphen removed. So, for example, the CSS color attribute is represented by the color property of the Style object, while the CSS background-color attribute is represented by the backgroundColor property of the Style object. See Chapter 18 for more information about element styles.
