ICSSRule class

ICSSRule class

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 ICSSUnknownRule interface.

The ICSSRule type exposes the following members:

Properties

PropertyDescription
typeThe 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.
css_textThe parsable textual representation of the rule. This reflects the current state of the rule and not its initial value.
parent_style_sheetThe style sheet that contains this rule.
parent_ruleIf 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 returns null.
