TheariaBusy property of theElement interface reflects the value of thearia-busy attribute, which indicates whether an element is being modified, as assistive technologies may want to wait until the modifications are complete before exposing them to the user.

Value

A string with one of the following values:

"true"

The element is being updated.

"false"

There are no expected updates for the element.

Examples

In this example thearia-busy attribute on the element with an ID ofclock is set to "false". UsingariaBusy we update the value to "true".

<div   role="timer"  aria-live="polite"  aria-atomic="true"  aria-busy="false"></div>

let el = document.getElementById("clock");console.log(el.ariaBusy); // falseel.ariaBusy = "true";console.log(el.ariaBusy); // true
