在JavaScript中动态创建和更新CSS类的一个选项:

使用样式元素创建CSS节 使用样式元素的ID，以便我们可以更新CSS 类

…

function writeStyles(styleName, cssText) {
    var styleElement = document.getElementById(styleName);
    if (styleElement) 
             document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].removeChild(
        styleElement);
    styleElement = document.createElement('style');
    styleElement.type = 'text/css';
    styleElement.id = styleName;
    styleElement.innerHTML = cssText;
    document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(styleElement);
}

...

    var cssText = '.testDIV{ height:' + height + 'px !important; }';
    writeStyles('styles_js', cssText)

function createCSSClass(selector, style, hoverstyle) 
{
    if (!document.styleSheets) 
    {

    }

    if (document.getElementsByTagName("head").length == 0)

IE 9。现在可以加载文本文件并设置样式。innerHTML属性。所以本质上你现在可以通过ajax加载一个css文件(并获得回调)，然后像这样设置样式标签内的文本。

这适用于其他浏览器，不确定多久以前。但只要你不需要支持IE8，它就可以工作。

// RESULT: doesn't work in IE8 and below. Works in IE9 and other browsers.
$(document).ready(function() {
    // we want to load the css as a text file and append it with a style.
    $.ajax({
        url:'myCss.css',
        success: function(result) {
            var s = document.createElement('style');
            s.setAttribute('type', 'text/css');
            s.innerHTML = result;
            document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(s);
        },
        fail: function() {
            alert('fail');
        }
    })
});

然后你可以让它取出一个外部文件，比如mycss。css

.myClass { background:#F00; }

找到了一个更好的解决方案，它适用于所有浏览器。 使用文档。样式表来添加或替换规则。公认的答案是简短和方便的，但这适用于IE8和更少。

function createCSSSelector (selector, style) {
  if (!document.styleSheets) return;
  if (document.getElementsByTagName('head').length == 0) return;

  var styleSheet,mediaType;

  if (document.styleSheets.length > 0) {
    for (var i = 0, l = document.styleSheets.length; i < l; i++) {
      if (document.styleSheets[i].disabled) 
        continue;
      var media = document.styleSheets[i].media;
      mediaType = typeof media;

      if (mediaType === 'string') {
        if (media === '' || (media.indexOf('screen') !== -1)) {
          styleSheet = document.styleSheets[i];
        }
      }
      else if (mediaType=='object') {
        if (media.mediaText === '' || (media.mediaText.indexOf('screen') !== -1)) {
          styleSheet = document.styleSheets[i];
        }
      }

      if (typeof styleSheet !== 'undefined') 
        break;
    }
  }

  if (typeof styleSheet === 'undefined') {
    var styleSheetElement = document.createElement('style');
    styleSheetElement.type = 'text/css';
    document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(styleSheetElement);

    for (i = 0; i < document.styleSheets.length; i++) {
      if (document.styleSheets[i].disabled) {
        continue;
      }
      styleSheet = document.styleSheets[i];
    }

    mediaType = typeof styleSheet.media;
  }

  if (mediaType === 'string') {
    for (var i = 0, l = styleSheet.rules.length; i < l; i++) {
      if(styleSheet.rules[i].selectorText && styleSheet.rules[i].selectorText.toLowerCase()==selector.toLowerCase()) {
        styleSheet.rules[i].style.cssText = style;
        return;
      }
    }
    styleSheet.addRule(selector,style);
  }
  else if (mediaType === 'object') {
    var styleSheetLength = (styleSheet.cssRules) ? styleSheet.cssRules.length : 0;
    for (var i = 0; i < styleSheetLength; i++) {
      if (styleSheet.cssRules[i].selectorText && styleSheet.cssRules[i].selectorText.toLowerCase() == selector.toLowerCase()) {
        styleSheet.cssRules[i].style.cssText = style;
        return;
      }
    }
    styleSheet.insertRule(selector + '{' + style + '}', styleSheetLength);
  }
}

函数的用法如下。

createCSSSelector('.mycssclass', 'display:none');

YUI拥有迄今为止我所见过的最好的样式表实用程序。我鼓励你去看看，但这里有一个味道:

// style element or locally sourced link element
var sheet = YAHOO.util.StyleSheet(YAHOO.util.Selector.query('style',null,true));

sheet = YAHOO.util.StyleSheet(YAHOO.util.Dom.get('local'));


// OR the id of a style element or locally sourced link element
sheet = YAHOO.util.StyleSheet('local');


// OR string of css text
var css = ".moduleX .alert { background: #fcc; font-weight: bold; } " +
          ".moduleX .warn  { background: #eec; } " +
          ".hide_messages .moduleX .alert, " +
          ".hide_messages .moduleX .warn { display: none; }";

sheet = new YAHOO.util.StyleSheet(css);

There are obviously other much simpler ways of changing styles on the fly such as those suggested here. If they make sense for your problem, they might be best, but there are definitely reasons why modifying CSS is a better solution. The most obvious case is when you need to modify a large number of elements. The other major case is if you need your style changes to involve the cascade. Using the DOM to modify an element will always have a higher priority. It's the sledgehammer approach and is equivalent to using the style attribute directly on the HTML element. That is not always the desired effect.

简单地说，这在“所有浏览器”(特别是IE8/7)上都兼容:

function createClass(name,rules){
    var style = document.createElement('style');
    style.type = 'text/css';
    document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(style);
    if(!(style.sheet||{}).insertRule) 
        (style.styleSheet || style.sheet).addRule(name, rules);
    else
        style.sheet.insertRule(name+"{"+rules+"}",0);
}
createClass('.whatever',"background-color: green;");

最后一位将类应用于一个元素:

function applyClass(name,element,doRemove){
    if(typeof element.valueOf() == "string"){
        element = document.getElementById(element);
    }
    if(!element) return;
    if(doRemove){
        element.className = element.className.replace(new RegExp("\\b" + name + "\\b","g"));
    }else{      
        element.className = element.className + " " + name;
    }
}

这里还有一个小测试页面:https://gist.github.com/shadybones/9816763

关键的一点是，样式元素有一个“styleSheet”/“sheet”属性，你可以用它来添加/删除规则。
