Is it possible add CSS at runtime?

Post by manojdcoder »

I noticed DITA and DocBook defines CSS for built-in profiling attributes, for example following is the CSS from DITA for audience

Code: Select all

*[audience] {
    border: 1px solid green;
  }
  *[audience]:after(1000003) {
    font-size: 0.75em;
    content: ' (if audience is ' oxy_label(text, oxy_concat("'", oxy_replace(attr(audience), ' ', "' or '"), "'"), color, #0000ff) ') ';
    background-color: #CCFFAA;
  }
I have a dynamic list of profiling attributes for which I like to add similar CSS. Is it possible to inject CSS into editor at runtime using plugin, perhaps right before loading the document?

Hello,

Web Author supports custom DITA profiling attributes by default. The DITA specialization has to declare them using the domains attribute of the root element. This attribute should contain:

Code: Select all

a(props ATTR)
where ATTR is the name of the custom profiling attribute.

A more flexible option is to use the StylesFilter API [1].

Depending on your use-case, using psuedo-classes [2] can also be an option.

Best,
Cristian
