Examples
This code uses addEventListener
to listen for messages and errors:
const channel = new BroadcastChannel('example-channel'); channel.addEventListener('message', (event) => { received.textContent = event.data; }); channel.addEventListener('messageerror', (event) => { console.error(event); });
The same, but using the onmessage
and onmessageerror
event handler properties:
const channel = new BroadcastChannel('example-channel'); channel.onmessage = (event) => { received.textContent = event.data; }; channel.onmessageerror = (event) => { console.log(event); };
