CSSKeywordValue

Limited availability

This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

The CSSKeywordValue interface of the CSS Typed Object Model API creates an object to represent CSS keywords and other identifiers.

The interface instance name is a stringifier meaning that when used anywhere a string is expected it will return the value of CSSKeyword.value.

Constructor

CSSKeywordValue(): Creates a new CSSKeywordValue object.

Instance properties

CSSKeywordValue.value: Returns or sets the value of the CSSKeywordValue.

Instance methods

Inherits methods from CSSStyleValue.

Examples

The following example resets the CSS display property to its defaults, setting the inline style attribute to style="display: initial" if viewed in the developer tools inspector.

#myElement {
  display: flex;
}

<div id="myElement">
  Check the developer tools to see the log in the console and to inspect the
  style attribute on this div.
</div>

let myElement = document.getElementById("myElement").attributeStyleMap;
myElement.set("display", new CSSKeywordValue("initial"));

console.log(myElement.get("display").value); // 'initial'
