Question

i\'m trying to use inline data-attributes as variables for css... is there any known option to get this run:

Answer 1

You can do this with CSS Custom Properties.

Support is pretty good, including Edge (but no IE)

p {
  width:80%;
  margin:1em auto;
  text-shadow: 2px 6px 2px grey;
}

p.colored {
  color: var(--mycolor)
}

p.shadowed {
  text-shadow: 2px 6px 2px var(--shadowcolor);
}
