The Style Attribute Module declares the following Common Attribute in the Core Attribute Collection:

• style

Description

This module is deprecated: see the W3C page on *The XHTML 1.1 Document Type.
Use of this module is discouraged in order to promote the separation of style from content.

The Style Attribute Module declares the style attribute, which may be applied to most elements in order to assign element-specific style declarations directly within the XHTML. For CSS styles, declarations made using the style attribute have higher precedence than other declarations applying to the same element, for the same degree of importance (Ref: *W3C CSS 2.1; The Cascade).

If you use the style attribute in your document, you should indicate the MIME type of the style declarations (typically "text/css") in a Content-Style-Type HTTP header.
