Obsolete
This feature is obsolete. Although it may still work in some browsers, its use is discouraged since it could be removed at any time. Try to avoid using it.
The obsolete CSSStyleSheet method
removeRule() removes a rule from the stylesheet
object. It is functionally identical to the standard, preferred method
deleteRule().
Note: This is a legacy method which has been replaced by
the standard method deleteRule(). You
should use that instead.
Syntax
cssStyleSheet.removeRule(index)
Parameters
index- The index into the stylesheet's
CSSRuleListindicating the rule to be removed.
Return value
undefined
Example
This example removes the first rule from the stylesheet myStyles.
myStyles.removeRule(0);
You can rewrite this to use the standard deleteRule() method very easily:
myStyles.deleteRule(0);Specifications
