Wait, getComputedStyle is a live object? Jeezus. Nah, let's just return a dead object. It's for when you do need to request multiple properties, without having to retype the function multiple times (or get the UA to recompute things multiple times, if it can save effort by combining things). > Also, in terms of argument order, I would think that the type of style would > be specified more often than a pseudo-element, but maybe I'm wrong... Yeah, Mike's proposal swaps the order as well. Probably good to do. Alternately: arguments object. ~TJ
