CSSPositionTryRule: style property

Baseline 2026
Newly available

Since ⁨January 2026⁩, this feature works across the latest devices and browser versions. This feature might not work in older devices or browsers.

The read-only style property of the CSSPositionTryRule interface contains a CSSPositionTryDescriptors object representing the descriptors available in the @position-try rule's body.

Value

A CSSPositionTryDescriptors object.

Although the style property itself is read-only in the sense that you can't replace the CSSPositionTryDescriptors object, you can still assign to the style property directly, which is equivalent to assigning to its cssText property. You can also modify the CSSPositionTryDescriptors object using the setProperty() and removeProperty() methods.

Examples

The CSS includes a @position-try at-rule with a name of --custom-right and three descriptors.

css
@position-try --custom-bottom {
  top: anchor(bottom);
  min-width: 100px;
  margin-top: 10px;
}
js
const myRules = document.styleSheets[0].cssRules;
const tryOption = myRules[0]; // a CSSPositionTryRule
console.log(tryOption.style.top); // "anchor(bottom)"
console.log(tryOption.style["min-width"]); // "100px"
console.log(tryOption.style.positionArea); // ""; no position-area specified
