Bug 51172 – Implement @-webkit-document CSS rule for use in user stylesheets

• Component: CSS
• Status: UNCONFIRMED

[Mathias Bynens]

Something similar to @-moz-document <https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/@-moz-document> would make it *much* easier to write and use custom user stylesheets.

Also see <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2004Aug/0135>.

Pasting from the provided URL:

The @-moz-document rule is a Gecko-specific at-rule that restricts the style rules contained within it based on the URL of the document. It is designed primarily for user style sheets.

@-moz-document url(http://www.w3.org/),  
               url-prefix(http://www.w3.org/Style/),  
               domain(mozilla.org)  
{  
  /* CSS rules here apply to: 
     + The page "http://www.w3.org/". 
     + Any page whose URL begins with "http://www.w3.org/Style/" 
     + Any page whose URL's host is "mozilla.org" or ends with 
       ".mozilla.org" 
   */  
  
  /* make the above-mentioned pages really ugly */  
  body { color: purple; background: yellow; }  
}

If at all possible, supporting @-moz-document itself would be vastly preferable.  That way, existing styles will work without users having to wait for updates, and authors won't have to maintain two superficially-different versions for Gecko and Webkit.

They're called vendor prefixes for a reason. While it would indeed benefit convenience for using user-stylesheets, I'd consider it a bad thing to support another vendor's prefix.

FYI, someone created a userscript that partially does the job:

This doesn't mean this bug is fixed, but it can be used as a workaround in the meantime.

This is now included in the CSS Conditional Rules Module Level 3 draft: http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-conditional/#at-document
