JavaScript getAttribute Style
We have discussed in our previous examples the use of getAttribute() method. Visit the link http://www.roseindia.net/javascript/javascript-getattribute-method.shtml to get the example of getAttribute() method. In this example we will describe you the use of getAttribute() method with the "style" attribute.
Explanation with code :
To illustrate this example we have created an html page in which we have created a div with its auto "width" and fixed height. We have created a button also "Change Width" and it calls a user defined function getAttributeStyle() defined in the JavaScript.
function getAttributeStyle() { document.getElementById('myDiv').getAttribute("style").width="150px"; } |
In this function we have fetched the div element's reference and with this reference we can further call the getAttribute("style") method to have its "style" attribute. Now we can change <div> width by the specified value.
Full html code of the example is as follows :
<html> <head> <title> getAttribute Style Example </title> <script language="javascript" > function getAttributeStyle() { document.getElementById('myDiv').getAttribute ("style").width="150px"; } </script> </head> <body> <div style="background: #DFDFFF; width:'100%';" align="center"> <font color="#000080" size="12pt"> <b>getAttribute Style</b> </font> </div> <center> <div id="myDiv" style="background:#ffffdd; height:100px; float:inherit"> Welcome to RoseIndia Technologies Rose India Technologies Pvt.

Output :
As you will click on the button "Change Width" it will change the width by the "style" attribute.
