jQuery changing style of HTML element

Answer 1

$('#navigation ul li').css('display', 'inline-block');

not a colon, a comma

Answer 2

I think you can use this code also: and you can manage your class css better

<style>
   .navigationClass{
        display: inline-block;
        padding: 0px 0px 0px 6px;
        background-color: whitesmoke;
        border-radius: 2px;
    }
</style>
<div id="header" class="row">
    <div id="logo" class="col_12">And the winner is<span>n't...</span></div> 
    <div id="navigation" class="row"> 
        <ul id="pirra">
            <li><a href="#">Why?</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Synopsis</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Stills/Photos</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Videos/clips</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Quotes</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Quiz</a></li>
        </ul>
    </div>
 <script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
$('#navigation ul li').addClass('navigationClass'); //add class navigationClass to the #navigation .

});
 </script>

Answer 3

changing style with jquery

Try This

$('#selector_id').css('display','none');

You can also change multiple attribute in a single query

Try This

$('#replace-div').css({'padding-top': '5px' , 'margin' : '10px'});

Answer 4

you could also specify multiple style values like this

$('#navigation ul li').css({'display': 'inline-block','background-color': '#ff0000', 'color': '#ffffff'});

Answer 5

Use this:

$('#navigation ul li').css('display', 'inline-block');

Also, as others have stated, if you want to make multiple css changes at once, that's when you would add the curly braces (for object notation), and it would look something like this (if you wanted to change, say, 'background-color' and 'position' in addition to 'display'):

$('#navigation ul li').css({'display': 'inline-block', 'background-color': '#fff', 'position': 'relative'}); //The specific CSS changes after the first one, are, of course, just examples.

Answer 6

$('#navigation ul li').css({'display' : 'inline-block'});

It seems a typo there ...syntax mistake :))
