Prototype - camelize() Method

This method converts a string separated by dashes into a camelCase equivalent. For instance, 'foo-bar' would be converted to 'fooBar'.

Prototype uses this internally for translating CSS properties into their DOM style property equivalents.

Syntax

string.camelize();

Return Value

Returns a string.

Example

<html>
   <head>

      <script>
         function showResult() {
            var str = 'background-color';
            alert("background-color.camelize() : " + str.camelize() );
            str = '-moz-binding';
            alert("-moz-binding.camelize() : " + str.camelize() );
         }
      </script>
   </head>

      <p>Click the button to see the result.</p>
      <br />
