CSS is a language that describes the style of an HTML object. This method retrieves a style value from an HTML element contained in a HTMLCONTROL object.
The EOS flag is set if the returned data string is larger than the DIM variable used to receive the data.
The {id} is a value that determines the HTML element used for data retrieval. The {id} string is matched against the id attribute of the HTML element.
The {name} identifies the type of data retrieved from the HTML element matching the {id} string. Information on HTML element CSS style names can be found at:
If the {name} parameter is unsupported, invalid, or has never been set, an empty string can be returned.

The {return} string depends on the {name} data type being requested.
