ElementInternals: ariaRowSpan property

{{APIRef("Web Components")}}

The ariaRowSpan property of the {{domxref("ElementInternals")}} interface reflects the value of the aria-rowspan attribute, which defines the number of rows spanned by a cell or gridcell within a table, grid, or treegrid.

[!NOTE] Setting aria attributes on ElementInternals allows 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.

Value

A string which contains an integer.

Examples

In this example the value of ariaRowSpan is set to "2".

class CustomEl extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.internals_ = this.attachInternals();
    this.internals_.ariaRowSpan = "2";
  }
  // …
}
