Setting css property in decimals / floating with javascript

when i use element.style.left = 1.6px; this only sets property to 1. Not 1.6px. Which is not right. Is there a way to do this correctly.

Only i can think of is add new stylesheet to the whole body and delete the old one...seems like too much though.

Try using

element.style.left = "1.6px";

Because css properties are strings in Javascript.

This is because we can't operate on anything other than multiples of 1 pixel in CSS. Think of the page as a grid of pixels - we can't write between the lines of the grid! Why is it that you need 1.6px specifically?
