Rotate elemnts in JavaScript

[efth]

I tried to rotate an element by changing the CSS using this code:

elem.style.-moz-transform:rotate(45deg);

It didn't work, and yes, I'm using firefox to test it.
How should this be done?

Yeah I know that's how you do it in CSS. I was wondering how to phrase that in JavaScript.

http://code.google.com/p/jquery-rotate/ a plugin you could use that is similar to the CSS3 transform

Is there really no way to do it in plain JavaScipt, without jquery?

jQuery is just a JavaScript library. The JavaScript syntax should be : object.style.transform="rotate(45deg)"

Thank you!
That's the answer I was looking for.
But what about the -moz-?

[JorgeM]

Yea, sorry missed the Firefox detail. For Firefox, try...

document.getElementById('elementID').style.MozTransform = 'rotate(45deg)';

Thanks a bunch! Worked like a charm.
