The HTMLAnchorElement.relList read-only property reflects the rel attribute. It is a live DOMTokenList containing the set of link types indicating the relationship between the resource represented by the <a> element and the current document.
The property itself is read-only, meaning you can't substitute the DOMTokenList with another one, but its contents can still be changed.
A live DOMTokenList of strings.
js
