<p>CSSOM defines APIs (including generic parsing and serialization rules)
for Media Queries, Selectors, and of course CSS itself.</p>
<h2 class="no-num no-toc" id="sotd">Status of This Document</h2>
<p>This is a public copy of the editors' draft. It is provided for discussion only and may change at any moment.
Its publication here does not imply endorsement of its contents by W3C or by the CSS Working Group. Don't cite
this document other than as work in progress.</p>
<p class="note">Implementers should note well that this specification is an ongoing effort to sort out
what has been widely implemented and deployed from <a class="informative" href="#refsDOM2STYLE">[DOM2STYLE]</a> as well as common extensions thereto, some details
of which are currently interoperable and others which are not currently interoperable. As this specification moves
forward, it is hoped that these differences will be resolved and an unambiguous and adequate consensus-based
specification will emerge.</p>
<p><em>This section describes the status of this document at the time of
its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A list of
current W3C publications and the latest revision of this technical report

<h2 id="introduction"><span class="secno">1 </span>Introduction</h2>
<p>This document formally specifies the core features of the CSS Object Model (CSSOM). Other documents in the CSSOM family of specifications
as well as other CSS related specifications define extensions to these core features.</p>
<p>The core features of the CSSOM are oriented towards providing basic capabilities to author-defined scripts to permit access to
and manipulation of style related state information and processes.</p>
<p>The features defined below are fundamentally based on prior specifications of the W3C DOM Working Group, primarily
<a class="informative" href="#refsDOM2STYLE">[DOM2STYLE]</a>. The purposes of the present document are (1) to improve on that prior work by providing
more technical specificity (so as to improve testability and interoperability), (2) to deprecate or remove certain less-widely implemented
features no longer considered to be essential in this context, and (3) to newly specify certain extensions that have been
or expected to be widely implemented.</p>
<p>A full list of the changes to API signatures can be found in <a href="#changes-from-dom-2-style"><cite>Changes from DOM-2 Style</cite></a>.</p>
<h2 id="conformance"><span class="secno">2 </span>Conformance</h2>
<p>All diagrams, examples, and notes in this specification are
non-normative, as are all sections explicitly marked non-normative.
Everything else in this specification is normative.
<p>The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", <!--"SHALL", "SHALL
NOT",--> "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in the normative parts of this document are to be
interpreted as described in RFC2119. For readability, these words do
not appear in all uppercase letters in this specification.
<a href="#refsRFC2119">[RFC2119]</a>
<p>Requirements phrased in the imperative as part of algorithms
(such as "strip any leading space characters" or "return false and
terminate these steps") are to be interpreted with the meaning of the
key word ("must", "should", "may", etc) used in introducing the
algorithm.
<p>Conformance requirements phrased as algorithms or specific steps
may be implemented in any manner, so long as the end result is
equivalent. (In particular, the algorithms defined in this
specification are intended to be easy to follow, and not intended to
be performant.)
<p id="hardwareLimitations">User agents may impose
implementation-specific limits on otherwise unconstrained inputs,
e.g. to prevent denial of service attacks, to guard against running
out of memory, or to work around platform-specific limitations.
<p>When a method or an attribute is said to call another method or attribute, the user agent must invoke its internal API for that attribute or method so that
e.g. the author can't change the behavior by overriding attributes or methods with custom properties or functions in ECMAScript.
<p>Unless otherwise stated, string comparisons are done in a
<a class="external" data-anolis-spec="dom" href="http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#case-sensitive">case-sensitive</a> manner.
<h2 id="terminology"><span class="secno">3 </span>Terminology</h2>
<p>This specification employs certain terminology from the following documents:
<cite>DOM</cite>,
<cite>HTML</cite>,
<cite>CSS Syntax</cite>,
<cite>URL</cite>,
<cite>Fetch</cite>,
<cite>Associating Style Sheets with XML documents</cite>
and
<cite>XML</cite>.

<a href="#refsURL">[URL]</a>
<a href="#refsFETCH">[FETCH]</a>
<a href="#refsXMLSS">[XMLSS]</a>
<a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a>
<p>When this specification talks about object
<code title=""><var>A</var></code> where <code title=""><var>A</var></code> is actually an interface, it generally means an object implementing interface
<code title=""><var>A</var></code>.</p>
<p>The terms <dfn id="whitespace">whitespace</dfn>, <dfn id="ignored">ignored</dfn>, <dfn id="specified-value">specified value</dfn>, <dfn id="computed-value">computed value</dfn> and <dfn id="used-value">used value</dfn> are defined in CSS.
<a href="#refsCSS">[CSS]</a>
<p>The terms <dfn id="simple-selector">simple selector</dfn>, <dfn id="sequence-of-simple-selectors">sequence of simple selectors</dfn>, <dfn id="universal-selector">universal selector</dfn> and <dfn id="group-of-selectors">group of selectors</dfn> are defined in
Selectors. <a href="#refsSELECTORS">[SELECTORS]</a>
<p>The terms <dfn id="namespace-prefix">namespace prefix</dfn> and <dfn id="default-namespace">default namespace</dfn> are defined in CSS Namespaces Module. <a href="#refsCSSNAMESPACES">[CSSNAMESPACES]</a>
<p>The term <dfn id="list-of-css-page-selectors">list of CSS page selectors</dfn> refers to the comma-separated list of page selectors, as defined in CSS Paged Media Module.
<a href="#refsCSSPAGE">[CSSPAGE]</a>
<p>The terms <dfn id="set">set</dfn> and <dfn id="clear">clear</dfn> to refer to the true and
false values of binary flags or variables, respectively. These terms are also used as verbs in which case they refer to
mutating some value to make it true or false, respectively.</p>
<p>The term <dfn id="supported-styling-language">supported styling language</dfn> refers to CSS.
<p class="note">If another styling language becomes supported in user agents, this specification is expected to be updated as necessary.
<p>The terms <dfn id="::before-pseudo-element">::before pseudo-element</dfn> and <dfn id="::after-pseudo-element">::after pseudo-element</dfn> refer to the :before and :after pseudo-elements in CSS, except in this
specification the pseudo-elements are assumed to exist for all elements even if no box is generated for them. <a href="#refsCSS">[CSS]</a>
