Answer 1

It's not jQuery, it's the way JavaScript handles it.

Here's a chart:

No need. You can use the CSS style.

$("#ID").css({
    'z-index': 100,
    'height': '100px'
});

Answer 3

It's very simple.

All dashes are replaced by camelCase.

Therefore, every time you see a dash, remove it and make the next letter upper case.

Alternatively, you can specify the styles as strings within the JSON keys, and use exactly the same names as CSS.

For example: { "z-index": 4, "background-color": "red" }.
