You'll have to view the source to get the idea...

Barring the utter stupidity of inlining the styles, the gigantic method call, and totally circumventing the DOM, I suppose that could be a neat effect for some sort of browser game. Then again, going to such an extent just to layout things which are already handled --- dynamically, nonetheless --- better by the browser is a bit absurd.

The implementation also suffers from a major drawback (which probably is not an issue, if the site is specifically geared towards game development): disabling javascript will cause nothing to be rendered.

Yeow. That's way too many parameters. If you're going to use that approach, you should try to reduce the number of parameters being passed to your function.

Ideally, you could just pass a single string which gets placed in a style="$1", but if you want to abstract the use of actual styles and would rather use direct parameters, you could limit the margin, padding, border, and possible font parameters into a single string each (ie, margin:"5px 0px 0px 10px").
