The ariaModal
property of the Element
interface reflects the value of the aria-modal
attribute, which indicates whether an element is modal when displayed. Applying the aria-modal
property to an element with role="dialog"
replaces the technique of using aria-hidden on the background for informing assistive technologies that content outside a dialog is inert.
A string with one of the following values:
"true"
The element is modal.
"false"
The element is not modal.
In this example the aria-modal
attribute on the element with an ID of address-modal
is set to "true" indicating that this is a modal dialog. Using ariaModal
we update the value to "false".
<div
role="dialog"
id="address-modal"
aria-labelledby="dialog1Title"
aria-describedby="dialog1Desc"
aria-modal="true"></div>
let el = document.getElementById("address-modal");
console.log(el.ariaModal); // "true"
el.ariaModal = "false";
console.log(el.ariaModal); // "false"
