Reset/remove CSS styles for element only

Question

I\'m sure this must have been mentioned/asked before but have been searching for an age with no luck, my terminology must be wrong!

I vaguely remember a twee

Answer 1

if you set your CSS within classes, you can easly remove them using jQuery removeClass() Method. The code below removes .element class:

    <div class="element">source</div>   
    <div class="destination">destination</div>
      <script>
        $(".element").removeClass();
      </script>

If no parameter is specified, this method will remove ALL class names from the selected elements.

Answer 2

For those of you trying to figure out how to actually remove the styling from the element only, without removing the css from the files, this solution works with jquery:

$('.selector').removeAttr('style');
