IHTMLElement::get_id Method

Retrieves the value of the id property for the object. The property is an SGML identifier used as the target for hypertext links or for naming particular objects in associated style sheets.

Syntax

HRESULT get_id(
    BSTR *p
);

Parameters

p

Address of a string variable that receives the value of the id property. For scripting, this can be any alphanumeric string that begins with a letter, and can include the underscore (_) character.

Return Value

Returns S_OK if successful, or an error value otherwise.

Remarks

The value of the id property should be unique throughout the scope of the current document. If there is more than one object with the same identifier, a collection of those named items is created that can only be referenced by ordinal position.
