HTMLScriptElement: text property
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The text
property of the HTMLScriptElement
interface is a string that reflects the text content inside the <script>
element. It acts the same way as the Node.textContent
property.
It reflects the text
attribute of the <script>
element.
Value
A string.
Examples
html
<script id="el" type="text/javascript">
const num = 10;
console.log(num);
</script>
js
const el = document.getElementById("el");
console.log(el.text); // Output: "\n const num = 10;\n console.log(num);\n"
console.log(el.textContent); // Output: "\n const num = 10;\n console.log(num);\n"
el.text = "console.log(10);";
console.log(el.text); // Output: "console.log(10);"
console.log(el.textContent); // Output: "console.log(10);"
