Highlight: has() method

View on MDN ↗

The has() method of the Highlight interface returns a boolean indicating whether an AbstractRange object exists in a Highlight object or not.

Highlight is a Set-like object, so this is similar to using has().

Syntax

has(range)

Parameters

  • range
    • : The AbstractRange object to test for presence in the Highlight object.

Return value

Returns true if the specified range exists in the Highlight object; otherwise false.

Examples

The code snippet below creates two ranges, and a highlight object that contains one of them. The code then uses the has() method to check whether each range exists in the highlight:

const range1 = new Range();
const range2 = new Range();
const myHighlight = new Highlight(range1);

myHighlight.has(range1); // true
myHighlight.has(range2); // false
