currentStyle JavaScript Property Explained

“currentStyle” is a property in JavaScript used to access the computed style of an element. It was introduced in older versions of Internet Explorer but has now been deprecated.

The usage is as follows:

1. Get the element object:
2. Retrieve the element object using document.getElementById(“myElement”) or another method.
3. Retrieve the computed style using the “currentStyle” property.
4. elem’s current style is stored in the variable ‘style’.
5. Retrieve specific style values using the “currentStyle” property.
6. Retrieve the width of the element.
   Retrieve the color of the element.

Please note that the “currentStyle” property is only applicable to older versions of Internet Explorer. For modern browsers, it is recommended to use the “getComputedStyle” method to retrieve the computed styles. It functions similarly, but with slight differences.
