{{APIRef("CSSOM")}}

The ownerNode property of the {{domxref("StyleSheet")}} interface returns the node that associates this style sheet with the document.

This is usually an HTML <link> or <style> element, but can also return a processing instruction node in the case of <?xml-stylesheet ?>.

Value

A {{domxref("Node")}} object.

Examples

Assuming the <head> contains the following:

html
<link rel="stylesheet" href="example.css" />

Then:

js
console.log(document.styleSheets[0].ownerNode);
// Displays '<link rel="stylesheet" href="example.css">'

Notes

For style sheets that are included by other style sheets, such as with {{cssxref("@import")}}, the value of this property is null.
