Correct way to set webkit value with javascript

Question

I can normally use the syntax:

element.style.styleName = someValue

Such as:

element.style.top = "20px"

But the following bugs because of the "-"

element.style.-webkit-user-select = "initial"

What is the correct way to handle this?

element.style['-webkit-user-select'] = 'initial';

In JavaScript, foo.bar and foo['bar'] are equivalent. If the former would cause a syntax error, you can always fall back on the latter.
