How can I get list of all element css attributes with jQuery?

Question

I need to get list of elements all css attributes. How can I do that ?

Answer 1

For inline styles:

var styles = $("#someelement").attr("style");

From there, you should be able to split this string if you need to loop the styles.

To check individual styles, check the docs:

http://docs.jquery.com/CSS

Answer 2

$("#div1).css("background-color");

will return the background color property of an element with id div1.

css( name )

Sorry, I don't know a way to get all the CSS attributes using jQuery.

Answer 3

Copying the source from SO1004475 - jQuery CSS plugin that returns computed style of element to pseudo clone that element? - Please follow link and upvote there if you find it useful.

It seems ridiculous, but this is probably your best option - makes .css() with no arguments get an object with all this stuff set.

jQuery.fn.css2 = jQuery.fn.css;
jQuery.fn.css = function() {
    if (arguments.length) return jQuery.fn.css2.apply(this, arguments);
    var attr = ['font-family','font-size','font-weight','font-style','color',
        'text-transform','text-decoration','letter-spacing','word-spacing',
        'line-height','text-align','vertical-align','direction','background-color',
        'background-image','background-repeat','background-position',
        'background-attachment','opacity','width','height','top','right','bottom',
        'left','margin-top','margin-right','margin-bottom','margin-left',
        'padding-top','padding-right','padding-bottom','padding-left',
        'border-top-width','border-right-width','border-bottom-width',
        'border-left-width','border-top-color','border-right-color',
        'border-bottom-color','border-left-color','border-top-style',
        'border-right-style','border-bottom-style','border-left-style','position',
        'display','visibility','z-index','overflow-x','overflow-y','white-space',
        'clip','float','clear','cursor','list-style-image','list-style-position',
        'list-style-type','marker-offset'];
    var len = attr.length, obj = {};
    for (var i = 0; i < len; i++) 
        obj[attr[i]] = jQuery.fn.css2.call(this, attr[i]);
    return obj;
}
