HTMLImageElement: name property
Deprecated
Avoid using this feature in new projects. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.
The deprecated name property of the HTMLImageElement interface specifies a name for the element. It reflects the <img> element's name content attribute. It has been replaced by the id property available on all elements, and is kept only for compatibility reasons.
Value
A string providing a name by which the image can be referenced.
Examples
Setting the name attribute
js
const img = new Image();
img.src = "example.png";
img.alt = "An example picture";
img.name = "example-img";
Instead of doing this, set the id property instead:
js
img.id = "example-img";
