Abstract

This specification defines the Document Object Model Level 2 Style Sheets and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), a platform- and language-neutral interface that allows programs and scripts to dynamically access and update the content and of style sheets documents. The Document Object Model Level 2 Style builds on the Document Object Model Level 2 Core [DOM Level 2 Core] and on the Document Object Model Level 2 Views [DOM Level 2 Views].

Table of contents

1.1. Introduction

The DOM Level 2 Style Sheet interfaces are base interfaces used to represent any type of style sheet. The expectation is that DOM modules that represent a specific style sheet language may contain interfaces that derive from these interfaces.

The interfaces found within this section are not mandatory. A DOM application may use the hasFeature(feature, version) method of the DOMImplementationinterface with parameter values "StyleSheets" and "2.0" (respectively) to determine whether or not this module is supported by the implementation. In order to fully support this module, an implementation must also support the "Core" feature defined defined in the DOM 2 Core specification [DOM Level 2 Core]. Please refer to additional information about conformance in the DOM Level 2 Core specification [DOM Level 2 Core].

1.2. Style Sheet Interfaces

This set of interfaces represents the generic notion of style sheets.

Interface StyleSheet (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The StyleSheet interface is the abstract base interface for any type of style sheet. It represents a single style sheet associated with a structured document. In HTML, the StyleSheet interface represents either an external style sheet, included via the HTML LINK element, or an inline STYLE element. In XML, this interface represents an external style sheet, included via a style sheet processing instruction.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface StyleSheet { readonly attribute DOMString type; attribute boolean disabled; readonly attribute Node ownerNode; readonly attribute StyleSheet parentStyleSheet; readonly attribute DOMString href; readonly attribute DOMString title; readonly attribute MediaList media; };

Attributes

disabled of typeboolean

false if the style sheet is applied to the document. true if it is not. Modifying this attribute may cause a new resolution of style for the document. A stylesheet only applies if both an appropriate medium definition is present and the disabled attribute is false. So, if the media doesn't apply to the current user agent, the disabled attribute is ignored.

href of typeDOMString, readonly

If the style sheet is a linked style sheet, the value of its attribute is its location. For inline style sheets, the value of this attribute is null. See the href attribute definition for the LINKelement in HTML 4.0, and the href pseudo-attribute for the XML style sheet processing instruction.

media of type MediaList, readonly

The intended destination media for style information. The media is often specified in the ownerNode. If no media has been specified, the MediaListwill be empty. See the media attribute definition for the LINKelement in HTML 4.0, and the media pseudo-attribute for the XML style sheet processing instruction . Modifying the media list may cause a change to the attributedisabled.

ownerNode of type Node, readonly

The node that associates this style sheet with the document. For HTML, this may be the corresponding LINK orSTYLE element. For XML, it may be the linking processing instruction. For style sheets that are included by other style sheets, the value of this attribute isnull.

parentStyleSheetof type StyleSheet, readonly

For style sheet languages that support the concept of style sheet inclusion, this attribute represents the including style sheet, if one exists. If the style sheet is a top-level style sheet, or the style sheet language does not support inclusion, the value of this attribute is null.

title of typeDOMString, readonly

The advisory title. The title is often specified in theownerNode. See the title attribute definition for the LINKelement in HTML 4.0, and the title pseudo-attribute for the XML style sheet processing instruction.

type of typeDOMString, readonly

This specifies the style sheet language for this style sheet. The style sheet language is specified as a content type (e.g. "text/css"). The content type is often specified in theownerNode. Also see the type attribute definition for the LINKelement in HTML 4.0, and the type pseudo-attribute for the XML style sheet processing instruction.

Interface StyleSheetList(introduced in DOM Level 2)

The StyleSheetList interface provides the abstraction of an ordered collection of style sheets.

The items in the StyleSheetList are accessible via an integral index, starting from 0.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface StyleSheetList { readonly attribute unsigned long length; StyleSheet item(in unsigned long index); };

Attributes

length of typeunsigned long, readonly

The number of StyleSheetsin the list. The range of valid child stylesheet indices is0 to length-1 inclusive.

Methods

item

Used to retrieve a style sheet by ordinal index. If index is greater than or equal to the number of style sheets in the list, this returns null.

Parameters

index of typeunsigned long

Index into the collection

Return Value

StyleSheet The style sheet at the index position in theStyleSheetList, or null if that is not a valid index.

No Exceptions

Interface MediaList (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The MediaList interface provides the abstraction of an ordered collection of media, without defining or constraining how this collection is implemented. An empty list is the same as a list that contains the medium "all".

The items in the MediaList are accessible via an integral index, starting from 0.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface MediaList { attribute DOMString mediaText; // raises(DOMException) on setting

readonly attribute unsigned long length; DOMString item(in unsigned long index); void deleteMedium(in DOMString oldMedium) raises(DOMException); void appendMedium(in DOMString newMedium) raises(DOMException); };

Attributes

length of typeunsigned long, readonly

The number of media in the list. The range of valid media is0 to length-1 inclusive.

mediaText of typeDOMString

The parsable textual representation of the media list. This is a comma-separated list of media.

Exceptions on setting

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified string value has a syntax error and is unparsable. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this media list is readonly.

Methods

appendMedium

Adds the medium newMedium to the end of the list. If the newMedium is already used, it is first removed.

Parameters

newMedium of typeDOMString

The new medium to add.

Exceptions

DOMException INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: If the medium contains characters that are invalid in the underlying style language. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this list is readonly.

No Return Value

deleteMedium

Deletes the medium indicated byoldMedium from the list.

Parameters

oldMedium of typeDOMString

The medium to delete in the media list.

Exceptions

DOMException NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this list is readonly. NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if oldMedium is not in the list.

No Return Value

item

Returns the indexth in the list. If index is greater than or equal to the number of media in the list, this returns null.

Parameters

index of typeunsigned long

Index into the collection.

Return Value

DOMString The medium at the indexth position in theMediaList, or null if that is not a valid index.

No Exceptions

1.3. Document Extensions

Interface LinkStyle (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The LinkStyle interface provides a mechanism by which a style sheet can be retrieved from the node responsible for linking it into a document. An instance of theLinkStyle interface can be obtained using binding-specific casting methods on an instance of a linking node (HTMLLinkElement, HTMLStyleElement orProcessingInstruction in DOM Level 2).

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface LinkStyle { readonly attribute StyleSheet sheet; };

Attributes

sheet of type StyleSheet, readonly

The style sheet.

Interface DocumentStyle(introduced in DOM Level 2)

The DocumentStyle interface provides a mechanism by which the style sheets embedded in a document can be retrieved. The expectation is that an instance of the DocumentStyleinterface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on an instance of the Document interface.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface DocumentStyle { readonly attribute StyleSheetList styleSheets; };

Attributes

styleSheetsof type StyleSheetList, readonly

A list containing all the style sheets explicitly linked into or embedded in a document. For HTML documents, this includes external style sheets, included via the HTML LINK element, and inline STYLE elements. In XML, this includes external style sheets, included via style sheet processing instructions (see [XML-StyleSheet]).

1.4. Association between a style sheet and a document.

HTML and Style Sheet Creation

A style sheet can be associated with an HTMLDocument in one of two ways:

HTML and Style Sheet Removal

Removing a LINK HTML element or a STYLE HTML element removes the underlying style sheet from the style sheet collection associated with a document. Specifically, the removed style sheet is no longer applied to the presentation of the document.

XML and Style Sheet Creation

A new style sheet can be created and associated with an XML document by creating a processing instruction with the target 'xml-stylesheet' [XML-StyleSheet] and inserting it into the document.

XML and Style Sheet Removal

Removing a processing instruction with a target of 'xml-stylesheet' [XML-StyleSheet] removes the underlying style sheet from the style sheet collection associated with a document. Specifically, the removed style sheet is no longer applied to the presentation of the document.

Table of contents

2.1. Overview of the DOM Level 2 CSS Interfaces

The DOM Level 2 Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) interfaces are designed with the goal of exposing CSS constructs to object model consumers. Cascading Style Sheets is a declarative syntax for defining presentation rules, properties and ancillary constructs used to format and render Web documents. This document specifies a mechanism to programmatically access and modify the rich style and presentation control provided by CSS (specifically CSS level 2 [CSS2]). This augments CSS by providing a mechanism to dynamically control the inclusion and exclusion of individual style sheets, as well as manipulate CSS rules and properties.

The CSS interfaces are organized in a logical, rather than physical structure. A collection of all style sheets referenced by or embedded in the document is accessible on the document interface. Each item in this collection exposes the properties common to all style sheets referenced or embedded in HTML and XML documents; this interface is described in the Document Object Model Style Sheets. User style sheets are not accessible through this collection, in part due to potential privacy concerns (and certainly read-write issues).

For each CSS style sheet, an additional interface is exposed - the CSSStyleSheetinterface. This interface allows access to the collection of rules within a CSS style sheet and methods to modify that collection. Interfaces are provided for each specific type of rule in CSS2 (e.g. style declarations, @import rules, or@font-face rules), as well as a shared generic CSSRule interface.

The most common type of rule is a style declaration. The CSSStyleRuleinterface that represents this type of rule provides string access to the CSS selector of the rule, and access to the property declarations through the CSSStyleDeclarationinterface.

Finally, an optional CSS2Propertiesinterface is described; this interface (if implemented) provides shortcuts to the string values of all the properties in CSS level 2.

All CSS objects in the DOM are "live", that is, a change in the style sheet is reflected in the computed and actual style.

2.2. CSS Fundamental Interfaces

The interfaces within this section are considered fundamental CSS interfaces, and must be supported by all conforming implementations of the CSS module. These interfaces represent CSS style sheets specifically.

A DOM application may use the hasFeature(feature, version) method of the DOMImplementationinterface with parameter values "CSS" and "2.0" (respectively) to determine whether or not this module is supported by the implementation. In order to fully support this module, an implementation must also support the "Core" feature defined defined in the DOM Level 2 Core specification [DOM Level 2 Core] and the "Views" feature defined in the DOM Level 2 Views specification [DOM Level 2 Views]. Please refer to additional information about conformance in the DOM Level 2 Core specification [DOM Level 2 Core].

Interface CSSStyleSheet (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The CSSStyleSheet interface is a concrete interface used to represent a CSS style sheet i.e., a style sheet whose content type is "text/css".

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSStyleSheet : stylesheets::StyleSheet { readonly attribute CSSRule ownerRule; readonly attribute CSSRuleList cssRules; unsigned long insertRule(in DOMString rule, in unsigned long index) raises(DOMException); void deleteRule(in unsigned long index) raises(DOMException); };

Attributes

cssRules of type CSSRuleList, readonly

The list of all CSS rules contained within the style sheet. This includes both rule sets and at-rules.

ownerRule of type CSSRule, readonly

If this style sheet comes from an @import rule, the ownerRule attribute will contain the CSSImportRule. In that case, the ownerNode attribute in the StyleSheetinterface will be null. If the style sheet comes from an element or a processing instruction, the ownerRuleattribute will be null and the ownerNodeattribute will contain the Node.

Methods

deleteRule

Used to delete a rule from the style sheet.

Parameters

index of typeunsigned long

The index within the style sheet's rule list of the rule to remove.

Exceptions

DOMException INDEX_SIZE_ERR: Raised if the specified index does not correspond to a rule in the style sheet's rule list. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this style sheet is readonly.

No Return Value

insertRule

Used to insert a new rule into the style sheet. The new rule now becomes part of the cascade.

Parameters

rule of typeDOMString

The parsable text representing the rule. For rule sets this contains both the selector and the style declaration. For at-rules, this specifies both the at-identifier and the rule content.

index of typeunsigned long

The index within the style sheet's rule list of the rule before which to insert the specified rule. If the specified index is equal to the length of the style sheet's rule collection, the rule will be added to the end of the style sheet.

Return Value

unsigned long The index within the style sheet's rule collection of the newly inserted rule.

Exceptions

DOMException HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if the rule cannot be inserted at the specified index e.g. if an @import rule is inserted after a standard rule set or other at-rule. INDEX_SIZE_ERR: Raised if the specified index is not a valid insertion point. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this style sheet is readonly. SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified rule has a syntax error and is unparsable.

Interface CSSRuleList (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSRuleList interface provides the abstraction of an ordered collection of CSS rules.

The items in the CSSRuleList are accessible via an integral index, starting from 0.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSRuleList { readonly attribute unsigned long length; CSSRule item(in unsigned long index); };

Attributes

length of typeunsigned long, readonly

The number of CSSRules in the list. The range of valid child rule indices is 0 tolength-1 inclusive.

Methods

item

Used to retrieve a CSS rule by ordinal index. The order in this collection represents the order of the rules in the CSS style sheet. If index is greater than or equal to the number of rules in the list, this returns null.

Parameters

index of typeunsigned long

Index into the collection

Return Value

CSSRule The style rule at the index position in theCSSRuleList, or null if that is not a valid index.

No Exceptions

Interface CSSRule (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSRule interface is the abstract base interface for any type of CSS statement. This includes both rule sets and at-rules. An implementation is expected to preserve all rules specified in a CSS style sheet, even if the rule is not recognized by the parser. Unrecognized rules are represented using the CSSUnknownRuleinterface.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSRule {

// RuleType const unsigned short UNKNOWN_RULE = 0; const unsigned short STYLE_RULE = 1; const unsigned short CHARSET_RULE = 2; const unsigned short IMPORT_RULE = 3; const unsigned short MEDIA_RULE = 4; const unsigned short FONT_FACE_RULE = 5; const unsigned short PAGE_RULE = 6;

readonly attribute unsigned short type; attribute DOMString cssText; // raises(DOMException) on setting

readonly attribute CSSStyleSheet parentStyleSheet; readonly attribute CSSRule parentRule; };

Definition group RuleType

An integer indicating which type of rule this is.

Defined Constants

CHARSET_RULE

The rule is a CSSCharsetRule.

FONT_FACE_RULE

The rule is a CSSFontFaceRule.

IMPORT_RULE

The rule is a CSSImportRule.

MEDIA_RULE

The rule is a CSSMediaRule.

PAGE_RULE

The rule is a CSSPageRule.

STYLE_RULE

The rule is a CSSStyleRule.

UNKNOWN_RULE

The rule is a CSSUnknownRule.

Attributes

cssText of typeDOMString

The parsable textual representation of the rule. This reflects the current state of the rule and not its initial value.

Exceptions on setting

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified CSS string value has a syntax error and is unparsable. INVALID_MODIFICATION_ERR: Raised if the specified CSS string value represents a different type of rule than the current one. HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if the rule cannot be inserted at this point in the style sheet. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if the rule is readonly.

parentRule of type CSSRule, readonly

If this rule is contained inside another rule (e.g. a style rule inside an @media block), this is the containing rule. If this rule is not nested inside any other rules, this returnsnull.

parentStyleSheet of type CSSStyleSheet, readonly

The style sheet that contains this rule.

type of type unsigned short, readonly

The type of the rule, as defined above. The expectation is that binding-specific casting methods can be used to cast down from an instance of the CSSRule interface to the specific derived interface implied by the type.

SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified rule has a syntax error and is unparsable.

Interface CSSFontFaceRule (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSFontFaceRule interface represents a @font-face rule in a CSS style sheet. The@font-face rule is used to hold a set of font descriptions.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSFontFaceRule : CSSRule { readonly attribute CSSStyleDeclaration style; };

Attributes

style of type CSSStyleDeclaration, readonly

The declaration-block of this rule.

Interface CSSPageRule (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSPageRule interface represents a @page rule within a CSS style sheet. The@page rule is used to specify the dimensions, orientation, margins, etc. of a page box for paged media.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSPageRule : CSSRule { attribute DOMString selectorText; // raises(DOMException) on setting

readonly attribute CSSStyleDeclaration style; };

Attributes

selectorText of typeDOMString

The parsable textual representation of the page selector for the rule.

Exceptions on setting

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified CSS string value has a syntax error and is unparsable. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this rule is readonly.

style of type CSSStyleDeclaration, readonly

The declaration-block of this rule.

Interface CSSImportRule (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The CSSImportRule interface represents a @import rule within a CSS style sheet. The@import rule is used to import style rules from other style sheets.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSImportRule : CSSRule { readonly attribute DOMString href; readonly attribute stylesheets::MediaList media; readonly attribute CSSStyleSheet styleSheet; };

Attributes

href of typeDOMString, readonly

The location of the style sheet to be imported. The attribute will not contain the "url(...)" specifier around the URI.

media of typestylesheets::MediaList, readonly

A list of media types for which this style sheet may be used.

styleSheet of typeCSSStyleSheet, readonly

The style sheet referred to by this rule, if it has been loaded. The value of this attribute is null if the style sheet has not yet been loaded or if it will not be loaded (e.g. if the style sheet is for a media type not supported by the user agent).

Interface CSSCharsetRule (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The CSSCharsetRule interface represents a @charset rule in a CSS style sheet. The value of theencoding attribute does not affect the encoding of text data in the DOM objects; this encoding is always UTF-16. After a stylesheet is loaded, the value of the encodingattribute is the value found in the @charset rule. If there was no @charset in the original document, then no CSSCharsetRule is created. The value of theencoding attribute may also be used as a hint for the encoding used on serialization of the style sheet.

The value of the @charset rule (and therefore of theCSSCharsetRule) may not correspond to the encoding the document actually came in; character encoding information e.g. in an HTTP header, has priority (see CSS document representation) but this is not reflected in the CSSCharsetRule.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSCharsetRule : CSSRule { attribute DOMString encoding; // raises(DOMException) on setting

};

Attributes

encoding of typeDOMString

The encoding information used in this @charsetrule.

Exceptions on setting

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified encoding value has a syntax error and is unparsable. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this encoding rule is readonly.

Interface CSSUnknownRule (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The CSSUnknownRule interface represents an at-rule not supported by this user agent.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSUnknownRule : CSSRule { };

Interface CSSStyleDeclaration(introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSStyleDeclaration interface represents a single CSS declaration block. This interface may be used to determine the style properties currently set in a block or to set style properties explicitly within the block.

While an implementation may not recognize all CSS properties within a CSS declaration block, it is expected to provide access to all specified properties in the style sheet through theCSSStyleDeclaration interface. Furthermore, implementations that support a specific level of CSS should correctly handle CSS shorthand properties for that level. For a further discussion of shorthand properties, see the CSS2Propertiesinterface.

This interface is also used to provide a read-only access to the computed values of an element. See also the ViewCSS interface.

Note: The CSS Object Model doesn't provide an access to the specified or actual values of the CSS cascade.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSStyleDeclaration { attribute DOMString cssText; // raises(DOMException) on setting

DOMString getPropertyValue(in DOMString propertyName); CSSValue getPropertyCSSValue(in DOMString propertyName); DOMString removeProperty(in DOMString propertyName) raises(DOMException); DOMString getPropertyPriority(in DOMString propertyName); void setProperty(in DOMString propertyName, in DOMString value, in DOMString priority) raises(DOMException); readonly attribute unsigned long length; DOMString item(in unsigned long index); readonly attribute CSSRule parentRule; };

Attributes

cssText of typeDOMString

The parsable textual representation of the declaration block (excluding the surrounding curly braces). Setting this attribute will result in the parsing of the new value and resetting of all the properties in the declaration block including the removal or addition of properties.

Exceptions on setting

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified CSS string value has a syntax error and is unparsable. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this declaration is readonly or a property is readonly.

length of typeunsigned long, readonly

The number of properties that have been explicitly set in this declaration block. The range of valid indices is 0 to length-1 inclusive.

parentRule of type CSSRule, readonly

The CSS rule that contains this declaration block ornull if this CSSStyleDeclaration is not attached to a CSSRule.

Methods

getPropertyCSSValue

Used to retrieve the object representation of the value of a CSS property if it has been explicitly set within this declaration block. This method returns null if the property is a shorthand property. Shorthand property values can only be accessed and modified as strings, using thegetPropertyValue and setProperty methods.

Return Value

CSSValue Returns the value of the property if it has been explicitly set for this declaration block. Returns null if the property has not been set.

No Exceptions

getPropertyPriority

Used to retrieve the priority of a CSS property (e.g. the "important" qualifier) if the property has been explicitly set in this declaration block.

Return Value

DOMString A string representing the priority (e.g."important") if one exists. The empty string if none exists.

No Exceptions

getPropertyValue

Used to retrieve the value of a CSS property if it has been explicitly set within this declaration block.

Return Value

DOMString Returns the value of the property if it has been explicitly set for this declaration block. Returns the empty string if the property has not been set.

No Exceptions

item

Used to retrieve the properties that have been explicitly set in this declaration block. The order of the properties retrieved using this method does not have to be the order in which they were set. This method can be used to iterate over all properties in this declaration block.

Parameters

index of typeunsigned long

Index of the property name to retrieve.

Return Value

DOMString The name of the property at this ordinal position. The empty string if no property exists at this position.

No Exceptions

removeProperty

Used to remove a CSS property if it has been explicitly set within this declaration block.

Return Value

DOMString Returns the value of the property if it has been explicitly set for this declaration block. Returns the empty string if the property has not been set or the property name does not correspond to a known CSS property.

Exceptions

DOMException NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this declaration is readonly or the property is readonly.

setProperty

Used to set a property value and priority within this declaration block.

Parameters

propertyName of typeDOMString

The name of the CSS property. See the CSS property index.

value of typeDOMString

The new value of the property.

priority of typeDOMString

The new priority of the property (e.g."important").

Exceptions

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified value has a syntax error and is unparsable. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this declaration is readonly or the property is readonly.

No Return Value

Interface CSSValue (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSValue interface represents a simple or a complex value. A CSSValue object only occurs in a context of a CSS property.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSValue {

readonly attribute unsigned short cssValueType; };

Definition group UnitTypes

An integer indicating which type of unit applies to the value.

Defined Constants

CSS_CUSTOM

The value is a custom value.

CSS_INHERIT

The value is inherited and the cssText contains "inherit".

CSS_PRIMITIVE_VALUE

The value is a primitive value and an instance of the CSSPrimitiveValueinterface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on this instance of the CSSValue interface.

CSS_VALUE_LIST

The value is a CSSValue list and an instance of the CSSValueListinterface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on this instance of the CSSValue interface.

Attributes

A string representation of the current value.

Exceptions on setting

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified CSS string value has a syntax error (according to the attached property) or is unparsable. INVALID_MODIFICATION_ERR: Raised if the specified CSS string value represents a different type of values than the values allowed by the CSS property. NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this value is readonly.

cssValueType of typeunsigned short, readonly

A code defining the type of the value as defined above.

Interface CSSPrimitiveValue(introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSPrimitiveValue interface represents a single CSS value. This interface may be used to determine the value of a specific style property currently set in a block or to set a specific style property explicitly within the block. An instance of this interface might be obtained from thegetPropertyCSSValue method of the CSSStyleDeclarationinterface. A CSSPrimitiveValue object only occurs in a context of a CSS property.

Conversions are allowed between absolute values (from millimeters to centimeters, from degrees to radians, and so on) but not between relative values. (For example, a pixel value cannot be converted to a centimeter value.) Percentage values can't be converted since they are relative to the parent value (or another property value). There is one exception for color percentage values: since a color percentage value is relative to the range 0-255, a color percentage value can be converted to a number; (see also the RGBColorinterface).

Interface CSSValueList (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The CSSValueList interface provides the abstraction of an ordered collection of CSS values.

Some properties allow an empty list into their syntax. In that case, these properties take the none identifier. So, an empty list means that the property has the valuenone.

The items in the CSSValueList are accessible via an integral index, starting from 0.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface CSSValueList : CSSValue { readonly attribute unsigned long length; CSSValue item(in unsigned long index); };

Attributes

length of typeunsigned long, readonly

The number of CSSValues in the list. The range of valid values of the indices is 0 tolength-1 inclusive.

Methods

item

Used to retrieve a CSSValue by ordinal index. The order in this collection represents the order of the values in the CSS style property. If index is greater than or equal to the number of values in the list, this returnsnull.

Parameters

index of typeunsigned long

Index into the collection.

Return Value

CSSValue The CSSValue at theindex position in the CSSValueList, ornull if that is not a valid index.

No Exceptions

Interface RGBColor (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The RGBColor interface is used to represent any RGB color value. This interface reflects the values in the underlying style property. Hence, modifications made to the CSSPrimitiveValueobjects modify the style property.

A specified RGB color is not clipped (even if the number is outside the range 0-255 or 0%-100%). A computed RGB color is clipped depending on the device.

Even if a style sheet can only contain an integer for a color value, the internal storage of this integer is a float, and this can be used as a float in the specified or the computed style.

A color percentage value can always be converted to a number and vice versa.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface RGBColor { readonly attribute CSSPrimitiveValue red; readonly attribute CSSPrimitiveValue green; readonly attribute CSSPrimitiveValue blue; };

Attributes

blue of type CSSPrimitiveValue, readonly

This attribute is used for the blue value of the RGB color.

green of type CSSPrimitiveValue, readonly

This attribute is used for the green value of the RGB color.

red of type CSSPrimitiveValue, readonly

This attribute is used for the red value of the RGB color.

Interface Rect (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The Rect interface is used to represent any rect value. This interface reflects the values in the underlying style property. Hence, modifications made to the CSSPrimitiveValueobjects modify the style property.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface Rect { readonly attribute CSSPrimitiveValue top; readonly attribute CSSPrimitiveValue right; readonly attribute CSSPrimitiveValue bottom; readonly attribute CSSPrimitiveValue left; };

Attributes

bottom of type CSSPrimitiveValue, readonly

This attribute is used for the bottom of the rect.

left of type CSSPrimitiveValue, readonly

This attribute is used for the left of the rect.

right of type CSSPrimitiveValue, readonly

This attribute is used for the right of the rect.

top of type CSSPrimitiveValue, readonly

This attribute is used for the top of the rect.

Interface Counter (introduced in DOM Level 2)

The Counter interface is used to represent any counter or counters function value. This interface reflects the values in the underlying style property.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface Counter { readonly attribute DOMString identifier; readonly attribute DOMString listStyle; readonly attribute DOMString separator; };

Attributes

identifier of typeDOMString, readonly

This attribute is used for the identifier of the counter.

listStyle of typeDOMString, readonly

This attribute is used for the style of the list.

separator of typeDOMString, readonly

This attribute is used for the separator of the nested counters.

2.2.1. Override and computed style sheet

Interface ViewCSS (introduced in DOM Level 2)

This interface represents a CSS view. ThegetComputedStyle method provides a read only access to the computed values of an element.

The expectation is that an instance of the ViewCSSinterface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on an instance of the AbstractView interface.

Since a computed style is related to an Elementnode, if this element is removed from the document, the associatedCSSStyleDeclarationand CSSValuerelated to this declaration are no longer valid.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface ViewCSS : views::AbstractView { CSSStyleDeclaration getComputedStyle(in Element elt, in DOMString pseudoElt); };

Methods

getComputedStyle

This method is used to get the computed style as it is defined in [CSS2].

Parameters

elt of typeElement

The element whose style is to be computed. This parameter cannot be null.

pseudoElt of typeDOMString

The pseudo-element or null if none.

Return Value

CSSStyleDeclaration The computed style. The CSSStyleDeclarationis read-only and contains only absolute values.

No Exceptions

Interface DocumentCSS (introduced in DOM Level 2)

This interface represents a document with a CSS view.

The getOverrideStyle method provides a mechanism through which a DOM author could effect immediate change to the style of an element without modifying the explicitly linked style sheets of a document or the inline style of elements in the style sheets. This style sheet comes after the author style sheet in the cascade algorithm and is called override style sheet. The override style sheet takes precedence over author style sheets. An "!important" declaration still takes precedence over a normal declaration. Override, author, and user style sheets all may contain "!important" declarations. User "!important" rules take precedence over both override and author "!important" rules, and override "!important" rules take precedence over author "!important" rules.

The expectation is that an instance of theDocumentCSS interface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on an instance of theDocument interface.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface DocumentCSS : stylesheets::DocumentStyle { CSSStyleDeclaration getOverrideStyle(in Element elt, in DOMString pseudoElt); };

Methods

getOverrideStyle

This method is used to retrieve the override style declaration for a specified element and a specified pseudo-element.

Parameters

elt of typeElement

The element whose style is to be modified. This parameter cannot be null.

pseudoElt of typeDOMString

The pseudo-element or null if none.

Return Value

CSSStyleDeclaration The override style declaration.

No Exceptions

2.2.2. Style sheet creation

Interface DOMImplementationCSS(introduced in DOM Level 2)

This interface allows the DOM user to create a CSSStyleSheetoutside the context of a document. There is no way to associate the new CSSStyleSheetwith a document in DOM Level 2.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface DOMImplementationCSS : DOMImplementation { CSSStyleSheet createCSSStyleSheet(in DOMString title, in DOMString media) raises(DOMException); };

Methods

createCSSStyleSheet

Creates a new CSSStyleSheet.

Parameters

title of typeDOMString

The advisory title. See also the Style Sheet Interfaces section.

media of typeDOMString

The comma-separated list of media associated with the new style sheet. See also the Style Sheet Interfaces section.

Return Value

CSSStyleSheet A new CSS style sheet.

Exceptions

DOMException SYNTAX_ERR: Raised if the specified media string value has a syntax error and is unparsable.

2.2.3. Element with CSS inline style

Interface ElementCSSInlineStyle(introduced in DOM Level 2)

Inline style information attached to elements is exposed through the style attribute. This represents the contents of the STYLE attribute for HTML elements (or elements in other schemas or DTDs which use the STYLE attribute in the same way). The expectation is that an instance of the ElementCSSInlineStyle interface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on an instance of the Element interface when the element supports inline CSS style informations.

IDL Definition

// Introduced in DOM Level 2: interface ElementCSSInlineStyle { readonly attribute CSSStyleDeclaration style; };

Attributes

style of type CSSStyleDeclaration, readonly

The style attribute.

2.3. CSS2 Extended Interface

The interface found within this section are not mandatory. A DOM application may use the hasFeature(feature, version)method of the DOMImplementation interface with parameter values "CSS2" and "2.0" (respectively) to determine whether or not this module is supported by the implementation. In order to fully support this module, an implementation must also support the "CSS" feature defined defined in CSS Fundamental Interfaces. Please refer to additional information about conformance in the DOM Level 2 Core specification [DOM Level 2 Core].

Interface CSS2Properties (introduced inDOM Level 2)

The CSS2Properties interface represents a convenience mechanism for retrieving and setting properties within a CSSStyleDeclaration. The attributes of this interface correspond to all the properties specified in CSS2. Getting an attribute of this interface is equivalent to calling thegetPropertyValue method of the CSSStyleDeclarationinterface. Setting an attribute of this interface is equivalent to calling the setProperty method of the CSSStyleDeclarationinterface.

A conformant implementation of the CSS module is not required to implement the CSS2Properties interface. If an implementation does implement this interface, the expectation is that language-specific methods can be used to cast from an instance of the CSSStyleDeclarationinterface to the CSS2Properties interface.

If an implementation does implement this interface, it is expected to understand the specific syntax of the shorthand properties, and apply their semantics; when the marginproperty is set, for example, the marginTop,marginRight, marginBottom andmarginLeft properties are actually being set by the underlying implementation.

When dealing with CSS "shorthand" properties, the shorthand properties should be decomposed into their component longhand properties as appropriate, and when querying for their value, the form returned should be the shortest form exactly equivalent to the declarations made in the ruleset. However, if there is no shorthand declaration that could be added to the ruleset without changing in any way the rules already declared in the ruleset (i.e., by adding longhand rules that were previously not declared in the ruleset), then the empty string should be returned for the shorthand property.

For example, querying for the font property should not return "normal normal normal 14pt/normal Arial, sans-serif", when "14pt Arial, sans-serif" suffices. (The normals are initial values, and are implied by use of the longhand property.)

If the values for all the longhand properties that compose a particular string are the initial values, then a string consisting of all the initial values should be returned (e.g. aborder-width value of "medium" should be returned as such, not as "").

For some shorthand properties that take missing values from other sides, such as the margin, padding, and border-[width|style|color] properties, the minimum number of sides possible should be used; i.e., "0px 10px" will be returned instead of "0px 10px 0px 10px".

If the value of a shorthand property can not be decomposed into its component longhand properties, as is the case for thefont property with a value of "menu", querying for the values of the component longhand properties should return the empty string.

D.1: Production Systems

This specification was written in XML. The HTML, OMG IDL, Java and ECMA Script bindings were all produced automatically.

Thanks to Joe English, author of cost, which was used as the basis for producing DOM Level 1. Thanks also to Gavin Nicol, who wrote the scripts which run on top of cost. Arnaud Le Hors and Philippe Le Hégaret maintained the scripts.

For DOM Level 2, we used Xerces as the basis DOM implementation and wish to thank the authors. Philippe Le Hégaret and Arnaud Le Hors wrote the Java programs which are the DOM application.

Thanks also to Jan Kärrman, author of html2ps, which we use in creating the PostScript version of the specification.
