HTMLLinkElement: as property

The as property of the HTMLLinkElement interface returns a string representing the type of content to be preloaded by a link element.

The as property must have a value for link elements when rel="preload", or the resource will not be fetched. It may also be applied to link elements where rel="modulepreload", but if omitted, will default to script. The property should not be set for other types of link elements, such as rel="prefetch".

This property reflects the value of the as attribute of the <link> HTML element.

Value

A string with the following allowed values: "audio", "document", "embed", "fetch", "font", "image", "object", "script", "style", "track", "video", "worker".
