Javascript - Simple Jquery Set CSS Issue

Question

Why won't this set the css for the .btn-post element. I've tried putting it in a function as well.

var variable = "hsla(359, 61%, 30%, 1);"

$('.btn-post').css('background', variable );

And which browser are you using to test? IE8 won't support HSLa colors. — bfavaretto

May be you need a doc ready handler for it:

$(function(){
   var variable = "hsla(359, 61%, 30%, 1)";
   $('.btn-post').css('background', variable );
});

Try this:

   var variable = "hsla(359, 61%, 30%, 1)";
   $('.btn-post').css('background-color', variable );
