You can manipulate the inline CSS style of an HTML element by simply reading or editing its style
property.
Assume the following element:
<div id="element_id" style="color:blue;width:200px;">abc</div>
With this JavaScript applied:
var element = document.getElementById('element_id');
// read the color
console.log(element.style.color); // blue
//Set the color to red
element.style.color = 'red';
//To remove a property, set it to null
element.style.width = null;
element.style.height = null;
However, if width: 200px;
were set in an external CSS stylesheet, element.style.width = null
would have no effect. In this case, to reset the style, you would have to set it to initial
: element.style.width = 'initial'
.
