media

The media attribute specifies a media query that must be matched for a style sheet to apply.

You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:

Example

<svg viewBox="0 0 240 220" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <style>
    rect { fill: black; }
  </style>
  <style media="all and (min-width: 600px)">
    rect { fill: seagreen; }
  </style>

  <text y="15">Resize the window to see the effect</text>
  <rect y="20" width="200" height="200" />
</svg>

Usage notes

Value <media-query-list>
Default value all
Animatable Yes
<media-query-list>

This value holds a media query that needs to match in order for the style sheet to be applied.

If not specified, the style sheet is applied unconditionally.
