Syntax
js
italics()
Parameters
None.
Return value
A string beginning with an <i> start tag, then the text str, and then an </i> end tag.
Examples
Using italics()
The code below creates an HTML string and then replaces the document's body with it:
js
const contentString = "Hello, world";
document.body.innerHTML = contentString.italics();
This will create the following HTML:
html
<i>Hello, world</i>
Instead of using italics() and creating HTML text directly, you should use DOM APIs such as document.createElement(). For example:
js
const contentString = "Hello, world";
const elem = document.createElement("i");
elem.innerText = contentString;
document.body.appendChild(elem);
