HTML5 Offers ‘Scoped’ CSS for Precision Styling

HTML5?s controversial “scoped” style attribute is now supported in the latest Canary builds of Google’s Chrome web browser and Mozilla may eventually add support to Firefox as well.

HTML5 adds an attribute, scoped, to the style element which limits the scope of the styles contained within the tag. Google’s Alex Danilo has a good introduction to scoped over at HTML5Rocks. Essentially scoped allows you to nest styles within HTML and those styles will only apply to any child elements.
