jQuery - How to get all styles/css (defined within internal/external document) with HTML of an element

Question

I know that $(\"#divId\").html() will give me innerHtml. I also need its styles (which might be defined by the means of classes) either in-line style

Answer 1

Based on kirilloid's answer, I've created a developer tools extension for Chrome that incorporates that code for capturing styles and markup for a page fragment. The extension is in the Chrome Web Store and is on Github. All of the "Author Styles" output options use that method for iterating over the stylesheets.

Answer 2

The .css() method gets a particular style of the element... I don't know if you can retrieve all styles:

Answer 3

if you want to save all of the style of an element i think this will be more complicated as you think first of all my first ide was the firebug css console. this shows all fo the style of an element and i thought how? so i searched for the source code of the firebug and i found this:

http://fbug.googlecode.com/svn/branches/firebug1.7/content/firebug/css.js

this code working only on the css part.

const styleGroups =
{
    text: [
        "font-family",
        "font-size",
        "font-weight",
        "font-style",
        "color",
        "text-transform",
        "text-decoration",
        "letter-spacing",
        "word-spacing",
        "line-height",
        "text-align",
        "vertical-align",
        "direction",
        "column-count",
        "column-gap",
        "column-width"
    ],

    background: [
        "background-color",
        "background-image",
        "background-repeat",
        "background-position",
        "background-attachment",
        "opacity"
    ],

    box: [
        "width",
        "height",
        "top",
        "right",
        "bottom",
        "left",
        "margin-top",
        "margin-right",
        "margin-bottom",
        "margin-left",
        "padding-top",
        "padding-right",
        "padding-bottom",
        "padding-left",
        "border-top-width",
        "border-right-width",
        "border-bottom-width",
        "border-left-width",
        "border-top-color",
        "border-right-color",
        "border-bottom-color",
        "border-left-color",
        "border-top-style",
        "border-right-style",
        "border-bottom-style",
        "border-left-style",
        "-moz-border-top-radius",
        "-moz-border-right-radius",
        "-moz-border-bottom-radius",
        "-moz-border-left-radius",
        "outline-top-width",
        "outline-right-width",
        "outline-bottom-width",
        "outline-left-width",
        "outline-top-color",
        "outline-right-color",
        "outline-bottom-color",
        "outline-left-color",
        "outline-top-style",
        "outline-right-style",
        "outline-bottom-style",
        "outline-left-style"
    ],

    layout: [
        "position",
        "display",
        "visibility",
        "z-index",
        "overflow-x",  // http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-css3-box-20021024/#overflow
        "overflow-y",
        "overflow-clip",
        "white-space",
        "clip",
        "float",
        "clear",
        "-moz-box-sizing"
    ],

    other: [
        "cursor",
        "list-style-image",
        "list-style-position",
        "list-style-type",
        "marker-offset",
        "user-focus",
        "user-select",
        "user-modify",
        "user-input"
    ]
};

the function which gets all of the styles.

updateComputedView: function(element)
{
    var win = element.ownerDocument.defaultView;
    var style = win.getComputedStyle(element, "");

    var groups = [];

    for (var groupName in styleGroups)
    {
        var title = $STR("StyleGroup-" + groupName);
        var group = {title: title, props: []};
        groups.push(group);

        var props = styleGroups[groupName];
        for (var i = 0; i < props.length; ++i)
        {
            var propName = props[i];
            var propValue = stripUnits(rgbToHex(style.getPropertyValue(propName)));
            if (propValue)
                group.props.push({name: propName, value: propValue});
        }
    }

    var result = this.template.computedTag.replace({groups: groups}, this.panelNode);
    dispatch(this.fbListeners, 'onCSSRulesAdded', [this, result]);
}

function stripUnits(value)
{
    // remove units from '0px', '0em' etc. leave non-zero units in-tact.
    return value.replace(/(url\(.*?\)|[^0]\S*\s*)|0(%|em|ex|px|in|cm|mm|pt|pc)(\s|$)/gi, function(_, skip, remove, whitespace) {
    return skip || ('0' + whitespace);
    });
}

in this code i figured out that the

win.getComputedStyle(element, "")

to get all of the styles of an element, and then with a for loop gets all of the style and prints out. so i think the getComputedSTyle is the main function to use, and after this you can get the props one by one with:

style.getPropertyValue(propName)
