ICSSStyleSheet Interface

ICSSStyleSheet interface

The CSSStyleSheet interface represents a single CSS stylesheet, and lets you inspect and modify the list of rules contained in the stylesheet. It inherits properties and methods from its parent, StyleSheet.

A stylesheet consists of a collection of CSSRule objects representing each of the rules in the stylesheet. The rules are contained in a CSSRuleList, which can be obtained from the stylesheet’s cssRules property.

For example, one rule might be a CSSStyleRule object containing a style such as

h1, h2 {   font-size: 16pt; }

Another rule might be an at-rule such as @import or @media, and so forth.

public interface ICSSStyleSheet : IStyleSheet

Properties

Name	Description
getCSSRules The read-only CSSStyleSheet property cssRules returns a live `CSSRuleList` which provides a real-time, up-to-date list of every CSS rule which comprises the stylesheet. Each item in the list is a `CSSRule` defining a single rule.
getOwnerRule The read-only CSSStyleSheet property ownerRule returns the `CSSImportRule` corresponding to the @import at-rule which imported the stylesheet into the document. If the stylesheet wasn’t imported into the document using @import, the returned value is null.

Methods

Name	Description
deleteRule(int)	The `CSSStyleSheet` method deleteRule() removes a rule from the stylesheet object.
insertRule(String, int)	The CSSStyleSheet.insertRule() method inserts a new CSS rule into the current style sheet, with some restrictions.

Remarks

CSSOM defines APIs (including generic parsing and serialization rules) for Media Queries, Selectors, and of course CSS itself.
