The item()
method of the DOMTokenList
interface returns an item in the list, determined by its position in the list, its index.
Note: This method is equivalent as the bracket notation. So aList.item(i)
is the same as aList[i]
.

js
tokenList.item(index)
index
A number representing the index of the item you want to return. If it isn't an integer, only the integer part is considered.
A string representing the returned item, or null
if the number is greater than or equal to the length
of the list.
TypeError
Thrown if the index
cannot be converted to an integer.
In the following example we retrieve the list of classes set on a <span>
element as a DOMTokenList
using Element.classList
. We then retrieve the last item in the list using item(tokenList.length - 1)
, and write it into the <span>
's Node.textContent
.
First, the HTML:
html
<span class="a b c"></span>
Now the JavaScript:
js
const span = document.querySelector("span"); const classes = span.classList; const item = classes.item(classes.length - 1); span.textContent = item;
The output looks like this:
