Window
The Window
interface represents a window containing a DOM document; the document
property points to the DOM document loaded in that window.
A window for a given document can be obtained using the document.defaultView
property.
A global variable, window
, representing the window in which the script is running, is exposed to JavaScript code.
The Window
interface is home to a variety of functions, namespaces, objects, and constructors which are not necessarily directly associated with the concept of a user interface window. However, the Window
interface is a suitable place to include these items that need to be globally available. Many of these are documented in the JavaScript Reference and the DOM Reference.
In a tabbed browser, each tab is represented by its own Window
object; the global window
seen by JavaScript code running within a given tab always represents the tab in which the code is running. That said, even in a tabbed browser, some properties and methods still apply to the overall window that contains the tab, such as resizeTo()
and innerHeight
. Generally, anything that can't reasonably pertain to a tab pertains to the window instead.

Supports sending
File and FileList objects between windows. This is only allowed if the recipient's principal is contained within the sender's principal for security reasons.6

The
message parameter must be a string. |
