Styling Content in <img> Elements

CSS Working Group,
MathML Refresh Community Group,

In a recent MathML Refresh Community Group teleconference call, we briefly discussed styling content (e.g. SVG) loaded via <img> elements.

If there isn’t already a means of utilizing CSS to style content loaded via <img> elements, I would like to propose a new combinator – perhaps “>>”.

img >> svg { background-color: blue }

What do you think?


Best regards,
