style

The style attribute allows to style an element using CSS declarations. It functions identically to the style attribute in HTML.

You can use this attribute with any SVG element.

Example

html

<svg viewBox="0 0 100 60" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <rect
    width="80"
    height="40"
    x="10"
    y="10"
    style="fill: skyblue; stroke: cadetblue; stroke-width: 2;" />
</svg>

Usage notes

Value <style>
Default value None
Animatable No
<style>

The syntax of style data depends on the style sheet language. By default, the style sheet language is CSS.

Note: In theory, the contentStyleType attribute could be used to specify styling languages other than CSS, like XSL(T). However, this was never implemented satisfactorily in browsers, so you should not rely on it.
