<p>The <strong><code>HTMLDialogElement</code></strong> interface provides methods to manipulate {{HTMLElement("dialog")}} elements. It inherits properties and methods from the {{domxref("HTMLElement")}} interface.</p>

<p>{{InheritanceDiagram(600, 120)}}</p>

<h2 id="Properties">Properties</h2>

<p><em>Inherits properties from its parent, {{domxref("HTMLElement")}}.</em></p>

<dl>
 <dt>{{domxref("HTMLDialogElement.open")}}</dt>
 <dd>A {{domxref("Boolean")}} reflecting the {{htmlattrxref("open", "dialog")}} HTML attribute, indicating whether the dialog is available for interaction.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("HTMLDialogElement.returnValue")}}</dt>
 <dd>A {{domxref("DOMString")}} that sets or returns the return value for the dialog.</dd>
</dl>

<h2 id="Methods">Methods</h2>

<p><em>Inherits methods from its parent, {{domxref("HTMLElement")}}.</em></p>

<dl>
 <dt>{{domxref("HTMLDialogElement.close()")}}</dt>
 <dd>Closes the dialog. An optional {{domxref("DOMString")}} may be passed as an argument, updating the <code>returnValue</code> of the the dialog.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("HTMLDialogElement.show()")}}</dt>
 <dd>Displays the dialog modelessly, i.e. still allowing interaction with content outside of the dialog.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("HTMLDialogElement.showModal()")}}</dt>
 <dd>Displays the dialog as a modal, over the top of any other dialogs that might be present. Interaction outside the dialog is blocked.</dd>
</dl>

<h2 id="Events">Events</h2>

<dl>
 <dt>{{domxref("HTMLDialogElement/close_event", "close")}}</dt>
 <dd>Fired when the dialog is closed.<br>
 Also available via the {{domxref("GlobalEventHandlers/onclose", "onclose")}} property.</dd>
</dl>

<h2 id="Examples">Examples</h2>

<p>The following example shows a simple button that, when clicked, opens a {{htmlelement("dialog")}} containing a form via the {{domxref("HTMLDialogElement.showModal()")}} function. From there you can click the <em>Cancel</em> button to close the dialog (via the {{domxref("HTMLDialogElement.close()")}} function), or submit the form via the submit button.</p>

<pre class="brush: html notranslate">  &lt;!-- Simple pop-up dialog box, containing a form --&gt;
  &lt;dialog id="favDialog"&gt;
