converting jquery to pure javascript

Question

I have a function that creates an image with the canvas object. The last line of the function says this:

$('body').css({ 'background-image': "url(" + Canvas.toDataURL("image/png") + ")" });

I'm looking to convert this line into pure javascript to remove the jQuery dependency. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'url('+Canvas.toDataURL('image/png')+')';

Don't forget that IE doesn't like style, and uses cssText.

I've never had any issue with IE and .style.property. quirksmode.org/dom/w3c_css.html
