this is what Ive used. Its hacked out of a bigger method, so may need some work
cmd ="document.defaultView.getComputedStyle( #{element_object} , null)[ '#{css_rule}' ];\n" jssh_socket.send( cmd , 0 ) actual_val = read_socket() return actual_val I guess some thing like class Element def style( css_rule ) cmd ="document.defaultView.getComputedStyle( #{element_object} , null)[ '#{css_rule}' ];\n" jssh_socket.send( cmd , 0 ) actual_val = read_socket() return actual_val end end is what youd use and then puts button(:id, x).style('display') but, like I said, hacked from something else so may need some work Paul On Tue, Jun 9, 2009 at 2:52 PM, George <george.sand...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hey Loft, > > I tried to look into this a little more.
