How do I use jquery's CSS attribute?

Question

I'm just trying to reset my css, this doesn't seem to work although it follows the same structure detailed here: http://www.w3schools.com/jquery/css_css.asp

function labelReset(){
    $(".year").css("color" : "#000", "opacity" : "0.5", "size" : "14px");
    $(".dot").css("background-color" : "#000", "width" : "7px", "height" : "7px");
};

any thoughts?

W3Schools is generally crap. If you want to know about the jQuery syntax, go directly to the jQuery docs. — Anthony Grist

You forgot to use brackets {}:

   function labelReset(){
        $(".year").css({"color" : "#000", "opacity" : "0.5", "size" : "14px"});
        $(".dot").css({"background-color" : "#000", "width" : "7px", "height" : "7px"});
    };

For single property: .css( propertyName, value ), for multiple properties: .css( map ), check jQuery API css.
