What Is a CSS Extractor?
You've scraped a page, exported from a CMS, or inherited a legacy codebase where all the CSS lives inside <style> tags and inline style attributes. Manually copying those rules out is tedious and error-prone. A CSS extractor parses the HTML and pulls every style into a clean, standalone stylesheet you can actually work with. The MDN <style> element docs and the W3C CSS specification define how browsers interpret these embedded styles.
This tool runs in your browser. Paste HTML or upload a .html file. It extracts <style> block content and inline styles. Nothing is sent to a server. For formatting the output, use CSS Formatter. For combining multiple CSS files, use CSS Combiner.
How to Use This Tool
Paste or Upload HTML
Paste your HTML into the left editor or click Upload to load a .html or .htm file. Use Sample to load example HTML with embedded styles.
Review Extracted CSS
The right panel shows extracted CSS from <style> tags and inline styles. For validation, use CSS Validator. For minifying, use CSS Minifier.
Copy or Download
Use Copy or Download to save the CSS. For converting HTML to Markdown, use HTML to Markdown. For CSS to inline (email), use CSS to Inline.
Where CSS Extraction Helps
When migrating a legacy site or converting a single-file HTML document to a structured project, extracting CSS is the first step. Email templates, CMS exports, or scraped pages often have embedded styles. This tool gives you a starting point for refactoring. MDN HTML and MDN CSS document the standards.
For combining extracted CSS with other stylesheets, use CSS Combiner. For adding vendor prefixes, use CSS Prefixer. For converting preprocessors, use SCSS to CSS or Stylus to CSS.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I extract CSS from an HTML page?
Paste your HTML into the input panel or upload an .html file. The tool automatically pulls all CSS from <style> blocks and inline style attributes. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded to a server. For more on how browsers parse styles, see the MDN CSS reference.
Does it extract external stylesheets or @import rules?
No. It only extracts CSS that's directly embedded in the HTML — <style> blocks and inline style attributes. External <link> references and @import rules aren't fetched. You'd need to grab those files separately.
Is it safe to use with production HTML?
Yes. The extraction happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data leaves your machine, so you can safely paste HTML containing tokens, internal URLs, or proprietary markup.
What happens with inline styles on specific elements?
Inline styles are extracted and wrapped in comments showing which element they came from. Since inline styles are tied to specific elements, you may need to create proper selectors when moving them to a stylesheet. The W3C CSS Style Attributes spec explains how inline styles work.
Can I extract CSS from Vue or Angular scoped styles?
Yes. Scoped styles (Vue scoped, Angular view encapsulation) are extracted as-is, including any scope attributes. Keep in mind those attributes are framework-specific, so the CSS may need adjustment if you're using it outside the original framework context.
