{{APIRef("Web Components")}}
The ariaDisabled property of the {{domxref("ElementInternals")}} interface reflects the value of the aria-disabled attribute, which indicates that the element is perceivable but disabled, so it is not editable or otherwise operable.
[!NOTE] Setting aria attributes on
ElementInternalsallows default semantics to be defined on a custom element. These may be overwritten by author-defined attributes, but ensure that default semantics are retained should the author delete those attributes, or fail to add them at all. For more information see the Accessibility Object Model explainer.
A string with one of the following values:
"true"
"false"
In this example the value of ariaDisabled is set to "true".
class CustomControl extends HTMLElement {
constructor() {
super();
this.internals_ = this.attachInternals();
this.internals_.ariaDisabled = "true";
}
// …
}
