SVGAElement: relList property
Baseline 2025Newly available
Since May 2025, this feature works across the latest devices and browser versions. This feature might not work in older devices or browsers.
The relList read-only property of the SVGAElement returns a live DOMTokenList reflecting the space-separated string <list-of-Link-Types> values of the rel attribute of the SVG <a> element.
The property itself is read-only, meaning you can't substitute the
DOMTokenList by another one, but the content of the returned list can be
changed.
Value
A live DOMTokenList.
Examples
Given the following SVG:
html
<svg viewBox="0 0 200 20" xmlns="https://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<!-- A link around a text -->
<a href="/docs/Web/SVG/Reference/Element/text" rel="alternate bookmark">
<text x="30" y="10">Link text</text>
</a>
</svg>
We can retrieve every link type defined by <a> element's rel attribute:
js
// Select an SVG <a> element
const svgLink = document.querySelector("a");
const relations = svgLink.relList;
relations.forEach((relValue) => {
log(relValue);
});
