I don't think its possible, but I wanted to check with the 'experts'.

I only have CSS access to a site, is there anyway using CSS I can force in a JS file?

Thanks.

  • @MatthewCowley Do you want to include a file or would simply running a script sufficient? Commented Feb 28, 2016 at 11:06
  • @idmean All I want to do is be able to run JS on the site, but I only have CSS access. So running a script would be fine. Commented Feb 28, 2016 at 11:07

It looks, like your question is a duplicate of Import JavaScript files with CSS.

According to related post, it is not possible to load js file using @import rule inside css file.

CSS file can trigger loading following resources:

  • other css files
  • images
  • fonts

Any attempt to return js script in response to css stylesheet request, will result in css parse errors in the browser.

Bad idea, but you can use behavior (Work on IE9)

<html>
<head>
    <style>
        body {
            behavior: url('script.htc');
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

And "script.htc":

<script type="text/javascript">
    alert('hello world!');
</script>

OP said he only has css access.
put it on your css : body { behavior: url('script.htc'); }
That is CSS, I can link it to an external script file.
@MBN Sadly it doesn't work on Chrome or Edge, so I can't really use it.
Only in old IE will that work to some extent.
