Description

The @namespace parser directive is used to declare an XML namespace for the style sheet. An optional reference prefix can also be specified.

This directive has the form:

@namespace [prefix] URI;

If no prefix is specified, the rule defines the default namespace.

Important: @namespace directives must follow all @charset and @import directives, but precede all other at-rules and style rules in the style sheet.

Examples

This example sets the default namespace.

@namespace "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
