I'm trying to modify the width css property of a div using dajax in django. I've tried every variation I can think of with no success. I am using dajax successfully for many other things, mostly for "innerHTML" manipulation.

Here is an example of things I've tried...

Here is a simple div that I want to change the width of

<div id="mysillydiv" style="width: 1px;">some stuff</div>

Here are some dajax functions I've tried...

# does not work
dajax.assign('#mysillydiv', 'css.width', '50px')

# nope, this isn't it either
dajax.assign('#mysillydiv', 'style.width', '50px')

You get the idea. I just need to know what the attribute is to access that width property. :)

Thank you so much.

I'm new to dajax, but according to their list of API calls, it looks like you'd have two options.

Either use assign to modify the style attribute:

dajax.assign('#mysillydiv', 'style', 'width:50px')

Or, use CSS classes instead of inline CSS styles:

dajax.add_css_class('#mysillydiv', 'largersize')

And handle #mysilldiv.largersize in your CSS file...
