StyleSheet: href property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since September 2015.

The href property of the StyleSheet interface returns the location of the style sheet.

This property is read-only.

Examples

On a local Windows machine:

html

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en-US">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
    <title>href example</title>
    <link rel="styleSheet" href="example.css" />
    <script>
      function printRef() {
        alert(document.styleSheets[0].href);
      }
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="thunder">Thunder</div>
    <button onclick="printRef()">ss</button>
  </body>
</html>

Returns "file:////C:/Windows/Desktop/example.css"

Notes

If the style sheet is a linked style sheet, the value of its attribute is its location. For inline style sheets, the value of this attribute is null.
