"this.style" atttribute question

[Richard]

What other possibilities are there for using this element?

What else can be used in place of "this" and "style"?

Context? "this" is used in javascript to refer to an "object". This object.
I'm unaware of any use in html.

<div onclick="this.style.color='#f00';this.style.lineHeight='47em'">
click for red div with a whole lot of leading, not tested</div>

This is really a javascript question. And it won't work everywhere.

That was actually deliberate. If you go up the thread and read some other
replies to this poster, you'll see the original poster has a "fan" that
crossposts rants to a string of newsgroups, like alt.kook.

I assume you are talking about Richard and his entourage? Yours is the
only post in this thread I have seen, because they are all in my
killfile. If you quote who you are replying to it makes it easier to
kill the entire thread. Thanks.

Yes.

Well, I can understand that!

I don't really know how to handle this. I've looked back through Richards
posts and found *some* value in them. The entourage is another story. I've
had some words with Alexander Cain about netiquitte.

I'm only an occaisional reader here, so I don't know the whole story. I'd
rather not judge someone by childish innuendo.

Sorry to cause you any trouble.
