/**
 *  The <code>CSSPrimitiveValue</code> interface represents a single CSS value
 * . This interface may be used to determine the value of a specific style
 * property currently set in a block or to set a specific style property
 * explicitly within the block. An instance of this interface might be
 * obtained from the <code>getPropertyCSSValue</code> method of the
 * <code>CSSStyleDeclaration</code> interface. A
 * <code>CSSPrimitiveValue</code> object only occurs in a context of a CSS
 * property.
 * <p> Conversions are allowed between absolute values (from millimeters to
 * centimeters, from degrees to radians, and so on) but not between relative
 * values. (For example, a pixel value cannot be converted to a centimeter
 * value.) Percentage values can't be converted since they are relative to
 * the parent value (or another property value). There is one exception for
 * color percentage values: since a color percentage value is relative to
 * the range 0-255, a color percentage value can be converted to a number;
 * (see also the <code>RGBColor</code> interface).
 * <p>See also the <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-DOM-Level-2-Style-20001113'>Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Style Specification</a>.
