I am not sure what that sentence means. But I think I understand the question.
CSS is a kind of style markup for the text or other contents. We
treat it as part of the contents. It should have a license like the
page contents, or else a license compatible with the page contents.
As for Javascript, that is software code. We reject any nonfree software.
So all Javascript code in a page must be free.
And really you should avoid using Javascript code for anything substantial.
