## Update an Element

`element.update(options: object)`

Updates the options the [Element](https://docs.stripe.com/js/element.md)
was initialized with. Updates are merged into the existing configuration.

If you collect certain information in a different part of your interface
(e.g., ZIP or postal code), use `element.update` with the appropriate information.

The styles of an `Element` can be dynamically changed using `element.update`.
This method can be used to simulate CSS media queries that automatically adjust
the size of elements when viewed on different devices.
