Question

I select some tables using this:

$('.StatusDateTable').each(function() {
var statusLight = $(this).find(".StatusLight").attr("src");
statusLight = statusLight.substring(33).slice(0,-9);

if (statusLight == "Blue") {
    var columns = Math.abs((start - end)-1);
    var columnWidth = 40;
    var marginRight = Math.abs(columnWidth * columns);

Now I want to set margin-right=”theValueOfmarginRightHere” on the current table, is this possible?

I tried something like:

$(this).attr('margin-right=" + marginRight + "');

but obviously it doesn’t work.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

$(this).css('marginRight',marginRight + 'px');
