HTMLLinkElement.rel
The HTMLLinkElement.rel
property reflects the
rel
attribute. It is a DOMString
containing a
space-separated list of link types
indicating the relationship between the resource represented by the
<link>
element and the current document.
The most common use of this attribute is to specify a link to an external style sheet:
the property is set to stylesheet
, and the href
attribute is set to the URL of an external style sheet to format the page.
Syntax
var relstr = linkElt.rel;
linkElt.rel = relstr;
Example
var links = document.getElementsByTagName('link');
var length = links.length;
for (var i = 0; i < length; i++) {
alert(links[i]);
}
