HTMLAnchorElement: password 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 password
property of the HTMLAnchorElement
interface is a string containing the password component of the <a>
element's href
. If the URL does not have a password, this property contains an empty string, ""
.
This property can be set to change the password of the URL. If the URL has no host
or its scheme is file:
, then setting this property has no effect.
The password is percent-encoded when setting but not percent-decoded when reading.
See URL.password
for more information.
Value
A string.
Examples
// An <a id="myAnchor" href="https://anonymous:flabada@developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTMLAnchorElement"> is in the document
const anchor = document.getElementByID("myAnchor");
anchor.password; // returns 'flabada'
