Hey guys, been following this group for a while and thought I'd share my two cents with the community.
I've recently developed a small plugin (~600 byte minified) that will let you grab CSS for an element based upon another element in the same scope/hierarchy in the DOM. I'd like to see this kind of functionality in core, where a user could just simply call .css() to grab a elements CSS. Consider this: CSS (pseudo selectors): div:first { font-size: 25px; background-color: #C0C0C0; } div:last { font-size: 12px; background-color: #FF0000; } // This will contain everything that is unique for div:first compared to div:last var css = $('div:first').getCSS('div:last'); // This will return an object containing all CSS unique for div:first compared to a 'normal' div var css = $('div:first').getCSS(); // Consider that this one contains some 100+ elements $('#someSelector div').css(css); You can read (and see test cases) here: http://andreehansson.se/code/computedstyle/ In my initial testing, this method will be ~2-3 times faster then grabbing ALL css properties for the element and injecting it to the other ones.
