Is it possible to get all applied Styles and not just the computed

Question

Lets say you have one stylesheet with the following declaration at the top:

a {color: black; color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6)}

So if I run document.styleSheets[0].cssRules[0].cssText I get back

a{color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6)}

Is there any possibility to get all the styles and not just the computed?

Answer 1

No. cssText is actually an accessor, like innerHTML . Which means, you cannot recover any rules that the browser has eliminated. Unless you manually parse the CSS file. (...which I do not recommend. Why do you wanna do that anyway?)
