Can a CSS code/file load JS code/file?

We know that using Javascript we can load CSS files.

But, can we load Javascript files or run Javascript code using CSS?

If yes, how? Is there any documentation for this?

I think IE and firefox supports CSS expressions which probably you may think of. Something like

width:expression(document.body.clientWidth > 800? "800px": "auto" );

but these are really bad things and you should avoid this

Also you should avoid CSS expression as much as you can.

You can use the CSS like this:

body {
  behavior:url(xyz.htc);
}

and now in the xyz.htc file you can write like:

<PUBLIC:COMPONENT TAGNAME="xss">
   <PUBLIC:ATTACH EVENT="ondocumentready" ONEVENT="ABC()" LITERALCONTENT="false"/>
</PUBLIC:COMPONENT>
<SCRIPT>
   function ABC() 
   {
     alert("Message");
   }
</SCRIPT>

No.

The closest thing I can think of is Netscape 4 had a thing called JavaScript Style Sheets (JSSS)

No, you can not run Javascript or import Javascript into CSS... not that you would ever need to.
