The HTMLObjectElement interface provides special properties and methods (beyond those on the HTMLElement interface it also has available to it by inheritance) for manipulating the layout and presentation of <object> element, representing external resources.
Inherits properties from its parent, HTMLElement.
HTMLObjectElement.align Deprecated
A string representing an enumerated property indicating alignment of the element's contents with respect to the surrounding context. The possible values are "left", "right", "justify", and "center".
HTMLObjectElement.archive Deprecated
A string that reflects the archive HTML attribute, containing a list of archives for resources for this object.
HTMLObjectElement.border Deprecated
A string that reflects the border HTML attribute, specifying the width of a border around the object.
HTMLObjectElement.code Deprecated
A string representing the name of an applet class file, containing either the applet's subclass, or the path to get to the class, including the class file itself.
HTMLObjectElement.codeBase Deprecated
A string that reflects the codebase HTML attribute, specifying the base path to use to resolve relative URIs.
HTMLObjectElement.codeType Deprecated
A string that reflects the codetype HTML attribute, specifying the content type of the data.
HTMLObjectElement.contentDocument Read only
Returns a Document representing the active document of the object element's nested browsing context, if any; otherwise null.
HTMLObjectElement.contentWindow Read only
Returns a WindowProxy representing the window proxy of the object element's nested browsing context, if any; otherwise null.
HTMLObjectElement.dataReturns a string that reflects the data HTML attribute, specifying the address of a resource's data.
HTMLObjectElement.declare Deprecated
A boolean value that reflects the declare HTML attribute, indicating that this is a declaration, not an instantiation, of the object.
HTMLObjectElement.form Read only
Returns a HTMLFormElement representing the object element's form owner, or null if there isn't one.
HTMLObjectElement.heightReturns a string that reflects the height HTML attribute, specifying the displayed height of the resource in CSS pixels.
HTMLObjectElement.hspace Deprecated
A long representing the horizontal space in pixels around the control.
HTMLObjectElement.nameReturns a string that reflects the name HTML attribute, specifying the name of the browsing context.
HTMLObjectElement.standby Deprecated
A string that reflects the standby HTML attribute, specifying a message to display while the object loads.
HTMLObjectElement.typeA string that reflects the type HTML attribute, specifying the MIME type of the resource.
HTMLObjectElement.useMapA string that reflects the usemap HTML attribute, specifying a <map> element to use.
HTMLObjectElement.validationMessage Read only
Returns a string representing a localized message that describes the validation constraints that the control does not satisfy (if any). This is the empty string if the control is not a candidate for constraint validation (willValidate is false), or it satisfies its constraints.
HTMLObjectElement.validity Read only
Returns a ValidityState with the validity states that this element is in.
HTMLObjectElement.vspace Deprecated
A long representing the horizontal space in pixels around the control.
HTMLObjectElement.widthA string that reflects the width HTML attribute, specifying the displayed width of the resource in CSS pixels.
HTMLObjectElement.willValidate Read only
Returns a boolean value that indicates whether the element is a candidate for constraint validation. Always false for HTMLObjectElement objects.
Inherits methods from its parent, HTMLElement.
HTMLObjectElement.checkValidity()Returns a boolean value that always is true, because object objects are never candidates for constraint validation.
HTMLObjectElement.setCustomValidity()Sets a custom validity message for the element. If this message is not the empty string, then the element is suffering from a custom validity error, and does not validate.
