jQuery Style Properties

In this tutorial you will learn how to get or set jQuery style properties to HTML elements. 

jQuery css() Method:

The jQuery CSS() method allows us to compute the value of CSS style property or to set one or more CSS properties for the selected elements.
The CSS() method provides a quick way to apply the styles directly to the HTML elements i.e inline styles that can’t easily be defined in the stylesheet.

Get a CSS Property Value:

You can easily get the computed value of the CSS property of elements by simply passing the property as a parameter to the CSS() method.
Following is the basic syntax:

Syntax:

$(selector).css("propertyName");
In the following example, the computed value of the CSS background-color property of an <div> element will be retrieved and displayed when you click on that color box.

Example:

$(document).ready(function(){
$("div").click(function(){
var color = $(this).css("background-color");
$("#result").html(color);
});
});
Try it

Set a Single CSS Property and Value:

The CSS() method can take a property value and name as separate parameters for setting a single CSS property for the elements.
Following is the basic syntax:

Syntax:

$(selector).css("propertyName", "value");
In the following example, the CSS background-color property of the <div> element will be set to the orange, when it is clicked.

Example:

$(document).ready(function(){
$(".box").click(function(){
$(this).css("background-color", "#ff5722");
});
});
Try it

Set Multiple CSS Properties and Values:

It is possible yo set multiple CSS properties with the CSS() method.
Following is the syntax for setting more than one property for the elements:

Syntax:

$(selector).css({"propertyName":"value", "propertyName":"value", ...});
In the following example, the background-color, padding, and margin properties will be added to the selected elements at the same time when you click on the button.

Example:

$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
$("p").css({"background-color": "#ff5722", "color": "white", "padding": "20px", "margin": "5px"});
});
});
Try it
