Sometimes, we may want to remove a CSS property from an HTML element using JavaScript.
In this article, we’ll look at how to remove a CSS property using JavaScript.
Use the style.removeProperty Method
We can use the removeProperty
method to remove a CSS property from an element.
For instance, if we have the following HTML:
<div style='background-color: green'>
hello
</div>
We can remove the background-color
property by writing:
const el = document.querySelector('div')
el.style.removeProperty('background-color');
Setting a CSS Property to an Empty String
Another way to remove a CSS property from an HTML element is to set its value to an empty string.
For instance, we can write:
const el = document.querySelector('div')
el.style.backgroundColor = ''
to remove the value of the CSS background-color
property.
Conclusion
We can remove CSS properties from an object by setting to an empty string or calling the removeProperty
method.
