How can I erase all inline styles with javascript and leave only the styles specified in the css style sheet?

If I have the following in my html:







<div style="height:300px; width:300px; background-color:#ffffff;"></div>







And this in my css style sheet:







div {

    width:100px;

    height:100px;

    background-color:#000000;

}







Is there any way, with javascript/jquery, to remove all of the inline styles and leave only the styles specified by the css style sheet?

    $('div').attr('style', '');

    or

    $('div').removeAttr('style'); (From Andres's Answer)

    To make this a little smaller, try this:

    $('div[style]').removeAttr('style');

    This should speed it up a little because it checks that the divs have the style attribute.

    Either way, this might take a little while to process if you have a large amount of divs, so you might want to consider other methods than javascript.

    You could also try listing the css in the style sheet as !important

    I was using the $('div').attr('style', ''); technicque, and it wasn't working in IE8. I alerted the style attribute and it was not stripping out inline styles. .removeAttr ended up doing the trick in IE8.

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

By User
I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

By User
Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
