<h2 id="Summary" name="Summary">Summary</h2>

<p>Gibt eine statische <a href="/en-US/docs/DOM/NodeList" title="DOM/NodeList"><code>NodeList</code></a> aller Elemente absteigend des Elements, auf welchem querySelectorAll ausgeführt wird, die mit den angegebenen CSS Selektoren übereinstimmen.</p>

<h2 id="Syntax" name="Syntax">Syntax</h2>

<pre class="syntaxbox"><em>elementList</em> = baseElement.querySelectorAll(<em>selectors</em>);
</pre>

<p>wobei:</p>

<dl>
 <dt><code>elementList</code></dt>
 <dd>ist statische Node Liste [<code> NodeList[elements]</code> <code>] mit</code> <a href="/en-US/docs/DOM/element" title="DOM/Element">element</a> Objekten.</dd>
 <dt><code>baseElement</code></dt>
 <dd>ist ein <a href="/en-US/docs/DOM/element" title="DOM/element">element</a> Objekt.</dd>
 <dt><code>selectors</code></dt>
 <dd>ist eine Gruppe von <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/CSS/Getting_Started/Selectors">Selektoren</a> die mit dem Element im DOM übereinstimmen soll. </dd>
</dl>

<h2 id="Example" name="Example">Beispiele</h2>

<p>Dieses Beispiel gibt eine Liste der <code>p</code> Elementen im HTML body zurück:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">let matches = document.body.querySelectorAll('p');
</pre>

<p>Dieses Beispiel gibt eine Liste der <code>p</code> Unter-Elementen eines Containers, dessen Überobjekt ein <code>div</code> mit der Klasse 'highlighted' ist:</p>

<pre class="brush:js">let el = document.querySelector('#test');    //return an element with id='test'
let matches = el.querySelectorAll('div.highlighted &gt; p'); // return a NodeList of p wrapped in a div with attribute class "highlighted"
</pre>

<p>Dieses Beispiel gibt eine Liste der <code>iframe</code> Elementen die ein <strong>data</strong> Attribut 'src' besitzen:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">let matches = el.querySelectorAll('iframe[data-src]');
</pre>

<h2 id="Notes" name="Notes">Bemerkungen</h2>

<p>If the specified "selectors" are not found inside the DOM of the page, the method <code>queryselectorAll</code> returns an empty NodeList as specified below:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">&gt; let x = document.body.querySelectorAll('.highlighted'); //case: if the class highlighted doesn't exist in any attribute "class" of the DOM the result is
&gt; [] //empty NodeList</pre>

<p><code>querySelectorAll()</code> was introduced in the WebApps API.</p>

<p>The string argument pass to <code>querySelectorAll</code> must follow the CSS syntax. See {{domxref("document.querySelector")}} for a concrete example.</p>

<p>We could access a single item inside the NodeList in the following way:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">let x = document.body.querySelectorAll('.highlighted');
x.length; //return the size of x
x[i_item]; //where i_item has a value between 0 and x.length-1. The operator "[]" return as in an array the element at index "i_item"
</pre>

<p>We could iterate inside a NodeList with the construct <code>for(....) {...} </code>as in the following code:</p>

<pre class="brush: js"> let x = document.body.querySelectorAll('.highlighted');
 let index = 0;
 for( index=0; index &lt; x.length; index++ ) {
       console.log(x[index]);
 }</pre>

<p>So in the above way, it is possible to manage and modify the behaviour of the page.</p>

<h2 id="Quirks">Quirks</h2>

<p><code>querySelectorAll()</code> behaves differently than most common JavaScript DOM libraries, which might lead to unexpected results:</p>

<pre class="brush: html">&lt;div class="outer"&gt;
  &lt;div class="select"&gt;
    &lt;div class="inner"&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;</pre>

<pre class="brush: js">let select = document.querySelector('.select');
let inner = select.querySelectorAll('.outer .inner');
inner.length; // 1, not 0!
</pre>

<p>In this example, when selecting <code>.outer .inner</code> in the context of <code>.select</code>, .<code>inner</code> is still found, even though <code>.outer</code> is not a descendant of the baseElement (<code>.select</code>).<br>
 <code>querySelectorAll() </code>only verifies that the last element in the selector is within the baseElement.</p>

<p>The <code><a href="/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:scope">:scope</a></code> pseudo-class restores the expected behavior, only matching selectors on descendants of the baseElement:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">let select = document.querySelector('.select');
let inner = select.querySelectorAll(':scope .outer .inner');
inner.length; // 0
</pre>
