SubmitEvent: submitter property
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since March 2022.
The read-only submitter property found on
the SubmitEvent interface specifies the submit button or other element
that was invoked to cause the form to be submitted.
Value
An element, indicating the element that sent
the submit event to the form. While this
is often an <input> element whose type is submit or a <button> element whose type is submit, it could be some other element which has initiated a
submission process.
If the submission was not triggered by a button of some kind, the value of submitter is null.
Examples
See SubmitEvent for example code.
