The href
read-only property of the SVGAElement
returns an SVGAnimatedString
object reflecting the value of the href attribute, and, in certain cases, the xlink:href
Deprecated attribute. It specifies the target URI associated with the link.
This property enables access to the URI set for a link within an SVG document.
ValueAn SVGAnimatedString
indicating the value of the href attribute. Additionally, for elements defined to support it, it reflects the value of the xlink:href
Deprecated attribute when the href attribute is not set.
// Select an SVG <a> element
const svgLink = document.querySelector("a");
// Access the href property
console.log(svgLink.href.baseVal); // Logs the base URI
console.log(svgLink.href.animVal); // Logs the animated URI if applicable
// Example: Reflecting xlink:href
const deprecatedLink = document.querySelector("a");
console.log(deprecatedLink.href.baseVal); // Reflects 'xlink:href' if 'href' is not set
