Hi Martinjn, in my CSS file I have:
*{ background-color:#ffffff!important; } .destacado{ background-color:green!important; } and, in my jQuery code: $("a").click(function(){ $("p:last").addClass("destacado"); } and it's working fine! the last paragraph is converted to green using ! important and addClass method. try it. regards sebastian On 27 mar, 14:36, Martijn Houtman <martijn.hout...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I know I should actually avoid using !important, but nonetheless I'd > like to set it using jQuery's css(), but it seems to ignore setting > this property completely.
