Inlines external CSS into HTML elements.
Project description
inlinestyler
============
Inlinestyler is the styling code behind Dave Cranwell's *Inline Style* app - https://github.com/davecranwell/inline-styler - packaged into a library for ease of use elsewhere.
He writes:
It's a service which, when given a block of HTML including CSS,
will parse the CSS and convert it to inline "style" attributes
on each elements matched by the CSS rules found.
The benefit of this is primarily in developing HTML emails.
The most common email clients have patchy support for <style>
or <link> elements, but do on the whole support a varied set
of CSS properties. Its therefore necessary to instead define
styles in "style" attributes on each of the elements
themselves, which is tedious for anything but the simplest
of emails and introduces significant code maintenance problems.
The Inline Styler frees up the developer to write CSS in less
tedious/more maintainable ways: using proper selectors and rules,
grouped in either a stylesheet or a <style> block. The Inline
Styler converts these rules into the inline "style" attributes
for you.
Additionally, among the email clients who do support CSS, support
for individual CSS properties is variable. The Inline Styler will
analyse your CSS and estimate a compatibility rating across all
the email clients as a whole, alerting you to any particular
properties likely to reduce compatibility.
You can see a working example of this service at
http://inlinestyler.torchboxapps.com.
To use this app, CSS to be "inlined" must be presented in the HTML either
* linked absolutely e.g <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://mysite.com/styles.css" /> or
* provided in a <style> block in the <head> of the HTML, without @imports
