Examples
Example: Using small
The following example uses string methods to change the size of a string:
var worldString = "Hello, world"; console.log( worldString.small() ); // <small>Hello, world</small> console.log( worldString.big() ); // <big>Hello, world</big> console.log( worldString.fontsize(7) ); // <font size="7">Hello, world</fontsize>
With the element.style object you can get the element's style attribute and manipulate it more generically, for example:
document.getElementById('yourElemId').style.fontSize = '0.7em'
