CSSOMString
CSSOMString
is used to denote string data in CSSOM specifications and can refer to either DOMString
or USVString
. When a specification says CSSOMString
, it depends on the browser vendors to choose whether to use DOMString
or USVString
. While browser implementations that use UTF-8 internally to represent strings in memory can use USVString
when the specification says CSSOMString
, implementations that already represent strings as 16-bit sequences might choose to use DOMString
instead.
