if ((boxColors[0] != "#FFFFFF") || (boxColors[1] != "#FFFFFF)){
currentDOM.setBlockVisBoxModelColors("#FFFFFF", "#FFFFFF");
}

■ The forWhat argument, which is required, is a string. Possible values are "divs",
"selectedDiv", or "layers". If the forWhat argument is "divs", the function returns
the properties used for the visual aid that outlines all layout blocks. If

"selectedDiv", the function returns the property used for the visual aid that outlines
selected layout blocks. The
layers value specifies layers.

"SOLID":
var outlineStyle = dw.getBlockVisOutlineProperties("divs");
if (outlineStyle[2] != "SOLID"){
dw.setBlockVisOutlineProperties("divs", outlineStyle[0],
outlineStyle[1], "SOLID");
}
