How can i print the value of style attribute of an html element using javascript. I can get a specific style property value using document.getElementById('myId').style.property, where property is something like width, height etc.

However, how can I get the entire list of styles for an element?

    document.getElementById('myId').style.cssText as a String, or document.getElementById('myId').style as an Object.

    Edit:

    As far as I can tell, this returns the “actual”, inline style. On the element <a id='myId' style='font-size:inherit;'>, document.getElementById('myId').style.cssText should return "font-size:inherit;". If that is not what you want, try document.defaultView.getComputedStyle or document.getElementById('myId').currentStyle (the first one is all except IE, the second one is IE only). See here for more on computed vs. cascaded styles.
