check status of pointer -events using jquery

Question

Is it possible to check the status of pointer events within a class. I want to know if the pointer-events within a class is hidden or visible. I tried :

var a =  $(".overlay").pointerEvents();

but it seems it is not working.

Thanks

To access the value of a css property for a DOM element, you need to use the css method:

var a =  $(".overlay").css('pointer-events');
