Remarks
You can create up to 31 styleSheet objects with the createStyleSheet method. After that, the method returns an "Invalid Argument" exception. To create additional objects, use createElement and append them to the HEAD of the document as follows:
var styleSheet = document.createElement('STYLE');
document.documentElement.firstChild.appendChild(styleSheet);
Examples
