style
Description
Represents the current settings of all possible inline styles for a given element.
Remarks
Inline styles are CSS style assignments that an author applies directly to individual HTML elements using the STYLE= attribute. You use the style object to examine these assignments and either make new assignments or change existing ones.
You can retrieve the style object by applying the style keyword to an element object. You retrieve the current setting for an inline style by applying the corresponding style property to the style object.
The style object does not give access to the style assignments in style sheets. To obtain information about styles in style sheets, you must use the styleSheets collection to gain access to the individual style sheets defined in the document.
