javascript - How can I remove a style added with .css() function?

I'm changing CSS with jQuery and I wish to remove the styling I'm adding based on the input value:

if(color != '000000') $("body").css("background-color", color); else // remove style ?

How can I do this? Note that the line above runs whenever a color is selected using a color picker (ie. when mouse moves over a color wheel).

2nd note: I can't do this with css("background-color", "none") because it will remove the default styling from the css files. I just want to remove the background-color inline style added by jQuery.

Answer

Changing the property to an empty string appears to do the job:

$.css("background-color", "");
