HTMLInputElement: step 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 step property of the HTMLInputElement interface indicates the step by which numeric or date-time <input> elements can change. It reflects the element's step attribute. Valid values include the string "any" or a string containing a positive floating point number. If the attribute is not explicitly set, the step property is an empty string.

Value

A string representing the element's step value or an empty string if no step is explicitly set.

Example

js
const inputElement = document.querySelector('[type="number"]');
console.log(inputElement.step); // the current value of the step attribute
inputElement.step = 0.1; // sets the step value to "0.1"
inputElement.step = "any"; // sets the step to "any"
