  • Article

Gets or sets the name of the object.

Syntax

HRESULT IHTMLFormElement::get_name(BSTR *p);
HRESULT IHTMLFormElement::put_name(BSTR v);

Parameters

  • p
    Pointer to a variable of type BSTR that receives the name.
  • v
    BSTR that specifies the name.

Return Value

Remarks

Windows Internet Explorer 8 and later. In IE8 Standards mode, dynamically setting the IHTMLFormElement::name attribute on an input type=radio button correctly applies that button to the same named group. For more information about IE8 mode, see Defining Document Compatibility.

In Internet Explorer 8 and later versions, you can set the NAME attribute at run time on elements that are dynamically created with the IHTMLDocument2::createElement method. To create an element with a NAME attribute in earlier versions of Internet Explorer, include the attribute and its value when you use the IHTMLDocument2::createElement method.

In Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and later versions, this property applies to the attribute object.
