what I've noticed re .style is that for some things that are standard
(visibility for example) I can just do

  browser.element(how,what).style.visibility

For some other things we've defined outselves  (for example we use 'z-
index')  we had to remove special characters (the dash) and do it in
all caps as if it were a constant

  browser.element(how,what).style.ZINDEX

but then our primary supported browser is IE (kinda comes with it
having largest share (for a little while longer anyway) and company
being a MS gold level partern) and firefox is secondary.   So I don't
do a lot of this sort of thing with FF..
