jQuery check if element have specific attribute

Question

I am trying to see if an element have a specific CSS attribute. I am thinking at something like this:

if ( !$(this).attr(\'font-style\', \'italic\')) {
alert         


        

Answer 1

How about this

 if ($(this).css('font-style', 'italic')) {
    alert ("yes")
    }
    else {
    alert ("nop")
    }

But I'd rather use console.log instead of alert if I were you, use firebug its less annoying and more fun :D

I don't see why this shouldn't work..
