How do I reference a javascript object property with a hyphen in it?

Question

Using this script to make a style object of all the inherited etc styles.

var style = css($(this));
alert (style.width);
alert (style.text-align);
         


        

Answer 1

I think in the case of CSS styles they get changed to camelCase in Javascript so test-align becomes textAlign. In the general case where you want to access a property that contains non-standard characters you use array-style. ['text-align']
