You can modify the CSS rules directly, see this plugin: http://flesler.blogspot.com/2007/11/jqueryrule.html
I wrote this a while back, not thorougly tested. I guess adding a new class rule to the end of the stylesheet will override previous rules (this only adds to the first stylesheet in the document) // addStyles 0.1 // ricardo tomasi < ricardobeat at gmail com > // Licensed under the WTFPL - http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl/ function addStyles(rule){ var sheet = document.styleSheets[0], ln = (sheet.cssRules||sheet.rules).length; if (sheet.addRule) { rule = rule.match(/(.*){(.*)}/); sheet.addRule(rule[1],rule[2], ln); } else { sheet.insertRule(rule, ln); }; return arguments.callee; }; On Mar 29, 11:23 am, Lars Schöning <tahp...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > Apologies if this turns out to be a trivial question.
