How do I toggle CSS with jQuery?

Question

I have the following code:

$('#bc' + $.trim($this) + ' span.dashed-circle').css({ 'border' : '5px solid #000'});

That is triggered by a click.function().

I would like that to be a toggle - so when I click the element, it changes the border to what I have above...but when it is clicked again it disappears or rather sets the border to ' '.

Thoughts?

Edit: I should have been explicit...but I don't want to create a CSS class. The reason being is because when I do that, it messes up the formatting of the element being styled. I am sure that it is some small quirk somewhere that would fix it, but I am not interested in wading through the entire code base to fix little positioning issues with a new class. I would much rather just edit the css attribute directly - because it doesn't interfere with the layout.

Edit2: Here is the jsfiddle of the code I am trying to edit. If you notice, I have the CSS attributes last. But how do I let that be toggled ?

Edit3: If anyone is interested...the UI that this will be used in is for my webapp - http://www.compversions.com

$("trigger-element").toggle( function() {
   $(element-to-change).css({ 'border' : '5px solid #000'});
   }, function () {
   $(element-to-change).css({ 'border' : 'none'});
});

Try This

    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#panels tr table tr').toggle(function () {
            var $this = $(this),
                tr_class = 'dash-elem-selected';
            if (!$this.parent('thead').length) {
                if ($this.hasClass(tr_class)) {
                    $this.removeClass(tr_class);
                    tr_class = 'removeClass';
                } else {
                    $this.addClass(tr_class).siblings().removeClass(tr_class);
                    tr_class = 'addClass';
                }
                $this = $this.parents('td table').siblings('.sit-in-the-corner').text();
                $('#bc' + $.trim($this) + ' span')[tr_class]('bc-dotted-to-solid');
                $('#bc' + $.trim($this) + ' span.dashed-circle').css({ 'border' : '5px solid #000'});
            }
        }, function() {
   //This is your new function that will turn off your border and do any other proccessing that you might need.
$('#bc' + $.trim($this) + ' span.dashed-circle').css({ 'border' : 'none'});
});
    });
