Show all headers | View raw

Forgive me for being very rusty, and unfocused, but I'm having trouble 
finding something that I can use as a reference.

To show you what I'm looking for, take this code snippet: 
x[i].style.display = "none";

I fully understand what it's doing, and how. It's dynamically setting an 
element's display property to "none", just like could be done via a 
stylesheet:

Element {
   display:none;
   }

My question is how do I determine what other properties are exposed by 
the DOM?  I used to have a home made tool to loop through an element 
(object) and print out all its properties, but would prefer to have a 
reference document to look things up.  Further, to demonstrate my foggy 
state, as I was thinking about the JS I couldn't remember how I knew the 
CSS and knew "display" actually was a valid property of Element, but I 
could easily find a list of acceptable values for display.

I have found some online references, but as far as I can see, I need to 
know where I'm going before they are of any use. Does that make sense?
