The style
attribute specifies style information for its element. It functions identically to the style
attribute in HTML.

- <style>
- The syntax of style data depends on the style sheet language. By default, the style sheet language is CSS.
-
Note: In theory, the contentStyleType attribute could be used to specify styling languages other than CSS, like XSL(T). However, this was never implemented satisfactorily in browsers, so do not rely on it.
Example
The following example shows styling of a rectangle with the style attribute using CSS as style sheet language.
<svg viewbox="0 0 1000 500" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <rect height="300" width="600" x="200" y="100" style="fill: red; stroke: blue; stroke-width: 3"/> </svg>
