Menu
so I have this HTML code where I hide the body of the website using
<style>
body{
display: none;
}
</style>
<body>
<p>Something..</p>
</body>
but now I want to remove this using Javascript without giving the body an ID or a class. As a solution I've tried the following but it is not working.
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].removeAttribute("style");
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

You can set document.body's display style property to unset:
document.body.style.display = "unset"<style>
body {
display: none;
}
</style>
<body>
<p>Something..</p>
</body>If you want to remove the style tags added in your HTML, you have to select it using document.getElementsByTagName and call remove method to its nodes.
Working Fiddle
document.getElementsByTagName("style")[0].remove();body {
display: none;
}<p>Something..</p>If you want to set style to the element
If you just want to set the display style of body tag, you can do this with javascript using.
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].style.display
More Generic Solution
const body = document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];
const targetStyles = {
display: 'block',
}
Object.entries(targetStyles).forEach(([style, value]) => body.style[style] = value);body {
display: none;
}<p>Something..</p>What is the issue with your script?
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].removeAttribute("style");
This script selects the body tag from HTML and removed the inline style added to the body. Its will work for below template, but not for your requirement.
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].removeAttribute("style");<body style="background: blue;">
<p>Something..</p>
