The querySelectorAll Method
About
The querySelectorAll
and querySelector
methods
are defined on document
and HTMLElement
objects.
With querySelectorAll
, you pass it a CSS selector and it
returns a list of elements in the document
(or in the
HTMLElement
it is called on) which match the selector.
With querySelector
, the behavior is identical, except that
instead of returning a list, it returns only the first element which
matches the selector (or null, if there were no matched elements).
This behavior is nearly identical to the selector engine feature of jQuery. These methods are part of the W3C Selectors API.
