Related to this question Changing CSS pseudo-element styles via JavaScript, is there any way using javascript that I can access a pseudo-element's style attributes?

It depends on the browser. I don't believe IE supports this in any way, but for FireFox and Webkit browsers, you can use the following:
window.getComputedStyle(element, pseudo-selector);
For example:
window.getComputedStyle(document.body, ':before');
See: getComputedStyle
