Element: ariaBusy property
Baseline 2023
Newly available
Since October 2023, this feature works across the latest devices and browser versions. This feature might not work in older devices or browsers.
The ariaBusy
property of the Element
interface reflects the value of the aria-busy
attribute, which indicates whether an element is being modified, as assistive technologies may want to wait until the modifications are complete before exposing them to the user.
Value
Examples
In this example the aria-busy
attribute on the element with an ID of clock
is set to "false". Using ariaBusy
we update the value to "true".
html
<div
id="clock"
role="timer"
aria-live="polite"
aria-atomic="true"
aria-busy="false"></div>
js
let el = document.getElementById("clock");
console.log(el.ariaBusy); // false
el.ariaBusy = "true";
console.log(el.ariaBusy); // true
