Overriding !important style

element.style has a setProperty method that can take the priority as a third parameter:

element.style.setProperty("display", "inline", "important")

It didn't work in old IEs but it should be fine in current browsers.

I believe the only way to do this it to add the style as a new CSS declaration with the '!important' suffix. The easiest way to do this is to append a new <style> element to the head of document:

function addNewStyle(newStyle) {
    var styleElement = document.getElementById('styles_js');
    if (!styleElement) {
        styleElement = document.createElement('style');
        styleElement.type = 'text/css';
        styleElement.id = 'styles_js';
        document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(styleElement);
    }
    styleElement.appendChild(document.createTextNode(newStyle));
}

addNewStyle('td.EvenRow a {display:inline !important;}')

The rules added with the above method will (if you use the !important suffix) override other previously set styling. If you're not using the suffix then make sure to take concepts like 'specificity' into account.

If all you are doing is adding css to the page, then I would suggest you use the Stylish addon, and write a user style instead of a user script, because a user style is more efficient and appropriate.

See this page with information on how to create a user style

Rather than injecting style, if you inject a class(for eg: 'show') through java script, it will work. But here you need css like below. the added class css rule should be below your original rule.

td.EvenRow a{
  display: none !important;
}

td.EvenRow a.show{
  display: block !important;
}

There we have another possibility to remove a property value from the CSS.

Like using the replace method in js. But you have to know exactly the ID of the style, or you can write a for loop to detecting that by (count styles on the page, then check if any of those 'includes' or 'match' an !important value. & you can count also - how much contains them, or just simply write a global [regexp: /str/gi] replacing method)

Mine is very simple, but I attach a jsBin, for example:

First I set the body background in CSS for yellow !important, then I overrided by JS for darkPink.
