SVGAElement: password property

The password property of the SVGAElement interface is a string containing the password component of the SVG <a> element's href. If the URL does not have a password, this property contains an empty string, "".

This property can be set to change the password of the URL. If the URL has no host or its scheme is file:, then setting this property has no effect. Setting it also rewrites the element's href attribute as a complete, absolute URL.

The password is percent-encoded when setting but not percent-decoded when reading.

See URL.password for more information.

Value

A string.
