Document: plugins property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since ⁨June 2018⁩.

The plugins read-only property of the Document interface returns an HTMLCollection object containing one or more HTMLEmbedElements representing the <embed> elements in the current document.

Note: For a list of installed plugins, use Navigator.plugins instead.
