EditContext: attachedElements() method
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The attachedElements()
method of the EditContext
interface returns an Array
that contains only one item. This item is the element that's associated with the EditContext
object.
Syntax
attachedElements()
Return value
An Array
containing one HTMLElement
object.
There can only be one element associated to an EditContext
instance, so the returned array will always contain one element. If the API is extended in the future to support multiple associated elements, the return value will be an array containing multiple elements.
Examples
