SVGElement
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since January 2020.
All of the SVG DOM interfaces that correspond directly to elements in the SVG language derive from the SVGElement
interface.
Instance properties
Also inherits properties from the Element
interface.
SVGElement.attributeStyleMap
Read only-
A
StylePropertyMap
representing the declarations of the element'sstyle
attribute. SVGElement.dataset
Read only-
A
DOMStringMap
object which provides a list of key/value pairs of named data attributes which correspond to custom data attributes attached to the element. These can also be defined in SVG using attributes of the formdata-*
, where*
is the key name for the pair. This works just like HTML'sHTMLElement.dataset
property and HTML'sdata-*
global attribute. SVGElement.className
Deprecated Read only-
An
SVGAnimatedString
that reflects the value of theclass
attribute on the given element, or the empty string ifclass
is not present. This attribute is deprecated and may be removed in a future version of this specification. Authors are advised to useElement.classList
instead. SVGElement.nonce
-
Returns the cryptographic number used once that is used by Content Security Policy to determine whether a given fetch will be allowed to proceed.
SVGElement.ownerSVGElement
Read only-
An
SVGSVGElement
referring to the nearest ancestor<svg>
element.null
if the given element is the outermost<svg>
element. SVGElement.style
-
A
CSSStyleDeclaration
representing the declarations of the element'sstyle
attribute. SVGElement.tabIndex
-
The position of the element in the tabbing order.
SVGElement.viewportElement
Read only-
The
SVGElement

element.null
if the given element is the outermost<svg>
element.
Instance methods
This interface has no methods, but inherits methods from Element
.

or by assigning an event listener to the equivalent on...
