$(elParent).readAttribute('style')

is elParent a var of an extended element? my first guess would be that it is..

if it is.. try:

elParent.readAttribute('style')

if its not... try:

$('elParent').readAttribute('style')

same with:

el.writeAttribute(....


so... put together:

el.writeAttribute('style', elParent.readAttribute('style'));


Also, i'd replace the methods...

el.setAttribute('style', elParent.getAttribute('style'));


I just tried this in IE 7 and it worked.

readAttribute and writeAttribute have issues in IE7...
