@corysimmons Thanks for the great suggestions. Didn't noticed that adding custom css-rules result in a security thing. I’ll roll up this piece of code next week and try to fix some things. Thanks again for your investigation! :-)

@yckart you're a life saver, thank you for this. Works like a charm, I'm using it in a resize function to readjust the height of a psuedo dynamically. Only question I had was it adds elements constantly is there anyway to clean up the previously added rules maybe with an additional removeRule call?
Thank you

I'm actually getting the following error:
Failed to parse the rule ' { background-image: http://192.168.56.10/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/tuscany-landscape_087-3840x350.jpeg }'.

Any ideas?

Edit: My mistake, the ":before" was missing on my call 😢

That's a great function. Is there any way to remove a previously applied ':after' style?

This is brilliant. liked subscribed, followed, etc.

Excellent, just what I needed! Thanks.

jQuery ? kkk I think that now you can remove the JQuery integration and modernize the JS
