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:
