The ariaOrientation
property of the Element
interface reflects the value of the aria-orientation
attribute, which indicates whether the element's orientation is horizontal, vertical, or unknown/ambiguous.
Element.ariaOrientation

with one of the following values:
-
"horizontal"
-
The element is horizontal.

Examples
In this example the aria-orientation
attribute on the element with an ID of handle_zoomSlider
is set to "vertical
". Using ariaOrientation
we update the value to "horizontal
".
<div id="handle_zoomSlider" role="slider" aria-orientation="vertical" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="17" aria-valuenow="14" tabindex="0"> <span>11</span> </div>
let el = document.getElementById('handle_zoomSlider'); console.log(el.ariaOrientation); // "vertical" el.ariaOrientation = "horizontal" console.log(el.ariaOrientation); // "horizontal"
