The DOMTokenList.entries() method returns an iterator allowing you to go through all key/value pairs contained in this object. The values are DOMString objects, each representing a single token.
Syntax
tokenList.entries();
Return value
Returns an iterator.
Examples
In the following example we retrieve the list of classes set on a <span> element as a DOMTokenList using Element.classList. We when retrieve an iterator containing the key/value pairs using entries(), then iterate through each one using a for ... of loop, writing them to the <span>'s Node.textContent.
First, the HTML:
<span class="a b c"></span>
Now the JavaScript:
var span = document.querySelector("span");
var classes = span.classList;
var iterator = classes.entries();
for(var value of iterator) {
span.textContent += value + ' ++ ';
}
The output looks like this:
