CSSStyleSheet.replaceSync()
The replaceSync() method of the CSSStyleSheet interface synchronously replaces the content of the stylesheet with the content passed into it.
The replaceSync() and CSSStyleSheet.replace() methods can only be used on a stylesheet created with the CSSStyleSheet() constructor.
Syntax

Parameters

stringcontaining the style rules to replace the content of the stylesheet. If the string does not contain a parseable list of rules, then the value will be set to an empty string.
Note: If any of the rules passed in text are an external stylesheet imported with the @import rule, those rules will be removed, and a warning printed to the console.
Return value
Undefined.
Exceptions
DOMExceptionNotAllowedError-
Thrown if the stylesheet was not created using the
CSSStyleSheet()constructor or if the stylesheet is flagged as unmodifiable.
Examples
