Web StyleElement API | StyleElement media property

Last Updated : 31 Jul, 2019

In Web API there are style elements which have media attribute. To fetch this media attribute we use HTMLStyleElement.media property, which specifies the intended destination medium for style information.

Syntax:

label = style.media
style.media = label

label is a string which describes a single medium or a comma-separated list.

Example: get the media attribute

<!DOCTYPE html>

          media="screen" />
    
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function getmedia() {
            var label = document.getElementById('Link');
  
            document.getElementById(
              'media').innerHTML = label.media;
        }
