style type="text/css" ... what else is there?

Are there any other types that browsers support for the style tag besides "text/css"? (Excluding any synonyms for css). If not, then why not?

<style type="???"> ... </style>
Solution

  • There also are XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language) stylesheets for styling XML documents. They cannot be used with HTML though.

    CSS works for XML docs, but using XSL is recommended. Opposed to CSS, XSL is a Transformation Language (transforms input text written in a formal language into a modified output text).
