DOMException with one of the following code values
for one of the following reasons:

The specified rule is not legal at this location in the style sheet.INVALID_MODIFICATION_ERR
The new value of the property is a rule of a different type than the

does not have a parent. An example of a CSS rule with a parent is a
style rule within an @media rule.
readonly CSSStyleSheet parentStyleSheet
The CSSStyleSheet object that contains
this rule.
readonly unsigned short type
The type of
CSS rule this object represents. The legal values for this property
are the previously listed constants. This CSSRule interface is never
implemented directly, and the value of this property specifies which
more specific subinterface is implemented by this object.
Description
This interface defines properties that are common to all types of
rules in CSS style sheets. No object directly implements this
interface; instead, they implement one of the more specific
subinterfaces listed earlier. The most important subinterface is
probably CSSStyleRule, which describes a CSS rule that defines a
document style.
