The queryCommandEnabled() method is used to check whether the specified command is enabled by the browser or not.
Syntax:
isEnabled = document.queryCommandEnabled( command );
Parameters:
- command: It is the command for which support has to be determined.
Return value: It returns a Boolean value that specifies if the command is enabled by the browser. It returns true if the command is enabled and false if the command is disabled.
Example 1: This example shows if the “selectAll” command is enabled or not. We can use this information to execute the command using the execCommand() method or show a message to the user if it is not supported.
