CSS Properties and Class Manipulation

Getting and setting CSS information is accomplished via a set of dedicated jQuery functions.

In addition to setting and retrieving individual CSS properties, there are methods for easily changing the CSS classes assigned to page elements that work in a cross-browser manner.

• css(): get or set CSS properties on the matched elements in a variety of ways
• hasClass(className): determine whether a page element has a certain class
• addClass(className | function): add the given CSS class to the elements in the matched set
• removeClass(className | function): remove the given CSS class from the elements in the matched set
• toggeClass(className | function): add or remove the given CSS class to the elements in the matched set depending on whether it is already there
