HTMLOptionElement: value 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 value
property of the HTMLOptionElement
interface represents the value of the <option>
element as a string, or the empty string if no value is set. It reflects the element's value
attribute, if present. Otherwise, it returns or sets the contents of the element, similar to the textContent
property.
Value
A string containing the value
attribute value, if present, or the contents of the element.
Examples
js
const optionElement = document.querySelector("datalist option:first-of-type");
const oldValue = optionElement.value;
optionElement.value = oldValue.toUpperCase();
