StyleSheet Class
yui3/src/stylesheet/js/stylesheet.js:69
Create an instance of StyleSheet to encapsulate a css stylesheet. The constructor can be called using function or constructor syntax. <pre><code>var sheet = Y.StyleSheet(..);</pre></code> or <pre><code>var sheet = new Y.StyleSheet(..);</pre></code>
The first parameter passed can be any of the following things: <ul> <li>The desired string name to register a new empty sheet</li> <li>The string name of an existing StyleSheet instance</li> <li>The unique guid generated for an existing StyleSheet instance</li> <li>The id of an existing <code><link></code> or <code><style></code> node</li> <li>The node reference for an existing <code><link></code> or <code><style></code> node</li> <li>The Y.Node instance wrapping an existing <code><link></code> or <code><style></code> node</li> <li>A chunk of css text to create a new stylesheet from</li> </ul>
<p>If a string is passed, StyleSheet will first look in its static name registry for an existing sheet, then in the DOM for an element with that id. If neither are found and the string contains the { character, it will be used as a the initial cssText for a new StyleSheet. Otherwise, a new empty StyleSheet is created, assigned the string value as a name, and registered statically by that name.</p>
<p>The optional second parameter is a string name to register the sheet as. This param is largely useful when providing a node id/ref or chunk of css text to create a populated instance.</p>

getCssText
-
sel
Get the current cssText for a rule or the entire sheet. If the selector param is supplied, only the cssText for that rule will be returned, if found. If the selector string targets multiple selectors separated by commas, the cssText of the first rule only will be returned. If no selector string, the stylesheet's full cssText will be returned.
Parameters:
-
selStringSelector string
Returns:
isEnabled
()
Boolean
Returns false if the StyleSheet is disabled. Otherwise true.
Returns:
isValidSelector
-
sel
<p>Determines if a selector string is safe to use. Used internally in set to prevent IE from locking up when attempting to add a rule for a "bad selector".</p>
<p>Bad selectors are considered to be any string containing unescaped `~!@$%^&()+=|{}[];'"?< or space. Also forbidden are . or # followed by anything other than an alphanumeric. Additionally -abc or .-abc or #_abc or '# ' all fail. There are likely more failure cases, so please file a bug if you encounter one.</p>

Returns:

Registers a StyleSheet instance in the static registry by the given name
Parameters:

<p>Set style properties for a provided selector string. If the selector includes commas, it will be split into individual selectors and applied accordingly. If the selector string does not have a corresponding rule in the sheet, it will be added.</p>

<p>The float style property will be set by any of "float", "styleFloat", or "cssFloat".</p>
