<p>{{APIRef("DOM")}}</p>
<p>The <code><strong>contains()</strong></code> method of the {{domxref("DOMTokenList")}} interface returns a {{domxref("Boolean")}} — <code>true</code> if the underlying list contains the given <em>token</em>, otherwise <code>false</code>.</p>
<h2 id="Syntax">Syntax</h2>
<pre class="syntaxbox">tokenList.contains(token);</pre>
<h3 id="Parameters">Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt>token</dt>
<dd>A {{domxref("DOMString")}} representing the token you want to check for the existance of in the list.</dd>
</dl>
<h3 id="Return_value">Return value</h3>
<p>A {{domxref("Boolean")}} — <code>true</code> if the underlying list contains the given <em>token</em>, otherwise <code>false</code>.</p>
<h2 id="Examples">Examples</h2>
<p>In the following example we retrieve the list of classes set on a {{htmlelement("span")}} element as a <code>DOMTokenList</code> using {{domxref("Element.classList")}}. We then test for the existance of "c" in the list, and write the result into the <code><span></code>'s {{domxref("Node.textContent")}}.</p>
<p>First, the HTML:</p>
<pre class="brush: html"><span class="a b c"></span></pre>
<p>Now the JavaScript:</p>
<pre class="brush: js">var span = document.querySelector("span");
var classes = span.classList;
var result = classes.contains("c");
if(result) {
span.textContent = "The classList contains 'c'";
} else {
span.textContent = "The classList does not contain 'c'";
}</pre>
<p>The output looks like this:</p>
