Abstract
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language for the World
Wide Web. CSS style sheets have been in use since October 1995 using
the Media Type text/css without registration; this memo seeks to
regularize that position.
1. Introduction
The World Wide Web Consortium has issued a Recommendation [1], which
defines Cascading Style Sheets, level 1. This memo provides
information about the text/css Media Type.
2. Cascading Style Sheets
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language for the World
Wide Web. It describes the presentation (e.g. fonts, colors and
spacing) of structured documents. CSS is human readable and writable,
and expresses style in common desktop publishing terminology.
CSS style sheets have been in use since October 1995 using the Media
Type text/css without registration; this memo seeks to regularize
that position.
A CSS style sheet can be either:

(1) external - the style sheet is linked to a document through a
URI and exists as a separate object on the Web. The media type
text/css is used when fetching the object, for example in the
Content-Type and Accept header fields of HTTP [2].
(2) internal - the style sheet is contained within the document. A
typical scenario is an HTML [3] document that contains a style
sheet within the STYLE element. Due to this close relationship,
HTML and CSS share the same top-level name ("text").
4. Registration Information
To: ietf-types@iana.org
Subject: Registration of MIME media type text/css
MIME media type name: text
MIME subtype name: css
Required parameters: none
Optional parameters: charset
The syntax of CSS is expressed in US-ASCII, but a CSS file can
contain strings which may use any Unicode character. Any charset
that is a superset of US-ASCII may be used; US-ASCII, iso-8859-X
and utf-8 are recommended.
Encoding considerations:
For use with transports that are not 8-bit clean, quoted-
printable encoding is recommended since the majority of
characters will be CSS syntax and thus US-ASCII
Security considerations:
Applying a style sheet to a document may hide information
otherwise visible. For example, a very small font size may be
specified, or the display of certain document elements may be
turned off.
CSS style sheets consist of declarative property/value pairs
assigned to element selectors. They contain no executable code.
As with HTML documents, CSS style sheets may contain links to
other media (images, sounds, fonts, other style sheets) and those
links are typically followed automatically by software, resulting

RFC 2318 text/css Media Type March 1998
in the transfer of files without the explicit request of the user
for each one. The security considerations of each linked file are
those of the individual registered types.
Interoperability considerations:
CSS has proven to be widely interoperable across computer
platforms, across Web browsers of different makes, and for import
and export in multiple authoring tools.
Published specification: see [1]
Applications which use this media type:
CSS is device-, platform- and vendor-neutral and is supported by
a wide range of Web user agents and authoring tools for
formatting HTML and XML documents.
