Preserved Topic: communicating with the body margin... (Page 1 of 1)

I have searched through the archives and can't find anything relating to this so I appologize if already been discussed, but...

Using Javascript, how do I set the body's margins? If I already have them in a style sheet set to: margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; How do I "communicate" in Javascript that I want to change them.

I know that you can change the attributes of a <div> but I want to change the style sheet attribute.

Does this make sense? I'm quite tired today.

document.body.style.margin = "whatever px"

Thanks

OK, that worked OK but now I need to get the top margin only. I have tried margin.top, margin-top and just top, but nothing seems to give me what I need. Any suggestions?

a CSS property

something-somethingelse

turns into the JS property

somethingSomethingelse

so use marginTop.

Thanks for the info. That will help me greatly!
