Hi,

Is it possible to get all properties of a css class associated with an element?
e.g.

.hightligh {
   font-weight: bold;
   border: 1px solid red;
   padding-top:10px;
}

Lets say the css class "hightlight" is assigned to div element

<div class='highlight'></div>

Now using JavaScript, I need to iterate through all style properties of css class "highlight" associated with the div element. Basically, I want to treat it as a JavaScript object whose properties can be accessed using iterator or for loop.

Thanks in advance
