CSSCounterStyleRule: name property

Baseline 2023
Newly available

Since ⁨September 2023⁩, this feature works across the latest devices and browser versions. This feature might not work in older devices or browsers.

The name property of the CSSCounterStyleRule interface gets and sets the <custom-ident> defined as the name for the associated rule.

Value

A string.

Examples

The following example shows a @counter-style rule. In JavaScript, myRules[0] is this @counter-style rule, returning name gives us the custom ident "box-corner".

@counter-style box-corner {
  system: fixed;
  symbols: ◰ ◳ ◲ ◱;
  suffix: ": ";
  fallback: disc;
}
let myRules = document.styleSheets[0].cssRules;
console.log(myRules[0].name); // "box-corner"
