public interface CSSStyleDeclarationTheCSSStyleDeclarationinterface 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 the
CSSStyleDeclarationinterface. 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 theCSS2Propertiesinterface.This interface is also used to provide a read-only access to the computed values of an element. See also the
ViewCSSinterface. The CSS Object Model doesn't provide an access to the specified or actual values of the CSS cascade.See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Style Specification.

Method Detail
-
getCssText
String getCssText()

-
setCssText
void setCssText(String cssText) throws DOMException
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.- Throws:
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.
-
getPropertyValue
String getPropertyValue(String propertyName)
Used to retrieve the value of a CSS property if it has been explicitly set within this declaration block.- Parameters:
propertyName- The name of the CSS property. See the CSS property index.- Returns:
- 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.
-
getPropertyCSSValue
CSSValue getPropertyCSSValue(String propertyName)
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 returnsnullif the property is a shorthand property. Shorthand property values can only be accessed and modified as strings, using thegetPropertyValueandsetPropertymethods.- Parameters:
propertyName- The name of the CSS property. See the CSS property index.- Returns:
- Returns the value of the property if it has been explicitly
set for this declaration block. Returns
nullif the property has not been set.
-
removeProperty
String removeProperty(String propertyName) throws DOMException
Used to remove a CSS property if it has been explicitly set within this declaration block.- Parameters:
propertyName- The name of the CSS property. See the CSS property index.- Returns:

propertyName- The name of the CSS property. See the CSS property index.- Returns:
- A string representing the priority (e.g.
"important") if the property has been explicitly set in this declaration block and has a priority specified. The empty string otherwise.
-
setProperty

Used to set a property value and priority within this declaration block.setPropertypermits to modify a property or add a new one in the declaration block. Any call to this method may modify the order of properties in theitemmethod.- Parameters:
propertyName- The name of the CSS property. See the CSS property index.value- The new value of the property.priority- The new priority of the property (e.g."important") or the empty string if none.- Throws:
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.
-
getLength
int getLength()
The number of properties that have been explicitly set in this declaration block. The range of valid indices is 0 to length-1 inclusive.
-
item
String item(int index)
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- Index of the property name to retrieve.- Returns:
- The name of the property at this ordinal position. The empty string if no property exists at this position.
