How to add css styling to Edge Animate elements?

I have done a complete search on this, and have tried based on the example here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/979124?promoid=KBHBD

But I can't seem to get it to work...

I am trying to justify text created in Edge (in which I named the div "bio" in the properties panel) using this method in document.compositionReady -   $("#bio").css("text-align","justify");

But it won't work.. I can't find many examples of using css to style divs in Edge so can someone help me?

ALSO - to help others who may have the same question, would you also be able to explain to noobs what the generic proper method is?

Thanks all!
