Inline media styles

Hello to all, and sorry about my poor english :)

I am trying to assign inline styles thru javascript or directly into
the element parameters. E.j:

<span style="font-size:5em;">

I would like to know if is it possible to assign styles inline but only
for @media print. I cannot use external css file and cannot use
<styles></styles>block. I would like something like that:

<span style="(media screen)font size:5em;(media print):font-size:9em;">

Thanks in advance

No.

You could probably still use <style ...> ... </style>

Although it's required to place this in the <head> and not the <body>,
in practice if you place it in the <body> then the page will be
invalid, but most browsers will still process the stylesheet correctly.
This is a useful hack! It also works for a:hover {}
