javascript - document.form.textbox.style…can't seem to find this?

Question

Can anyone help point me in the right direction - I have the following in a function:

document.form1.textbox1.style.display = 'none';

which works fine.

But I'm trying to find a list of all the possible 'elements'(?) that could come after style, eg '.display=', '.length=' etc, but I don't know the proper name/terms so the searches i'm doing are not returning what I want.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance! :)

Answer 1

See the CSS spec . Convert hyphenated-names to camelCase (eg backgroundColor not background-color).

Also see the DOM spec .

That said, in most cases it is usually better to modify the element.className (and have a pre–written, external style sheet) instead of modifying the element.style.*

Answer 2

Are you looking for this ?

It also shows browser compatibility.

Answer 3

Style basically maps onto the CSS. As such, display is a CSS property - this is what your setting.

Take a look at CSS and you should understand what you can and cannot set.

Hope this helps!
