Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since ⁨September 2016⁩.

The read-onlyWebGLContextEvent.statusMessage property contains additional event status information, or is an empty string if no additional information is available.

Examples

ThestatusMessage property can contain a platform dependent string with details of an event. This can occur, for example, if thewebglcontextcreationerror event is fired.

const canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");const gl = canvas.getContext("webgl");canvas.addEventListener("webglcontextcreationerror", (e) => {  console.log(    `WebGL context creation failed: ${e.statusMessage || "Unknown error"}`,  );});
