Friends
I have a submit button that I wish to change it's colour.
I have tried:
updateNodeAttributes('idOfButton', {'style': {'background-color':
'#ff0000'}});
And this does nothing.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm new to mochikit so maybe I'm in the wrong path, but I guess
that you need to pass as argument the computed style property name
and not the css declaration one. So change 'background-color' with
'backgroundColor' and see what happens.
In general when referring to property names which have a hyphen in
them you just need to remove the hyphen and put in uppercase the
first letter of the second word. For example: font-weight =
fontWeight, border-color = borderColor ...
All this is because in Javascript (as in most programming
languages) a name can't have a hyphen in it since it's used as the
arithmetic subtract operation.
That is correct. If you want to set the style in pure CSS then you
must set it as a string... but that will change all of the style,
where the property version will just update those components.
In other words, this should work:
{"style": "background-color: #ff0000"}
and so should this:
{"style": {"backgroundColor": "#ff0000"}}
