Returns the online status of the browser. The property returns a boolean value, with
true
meaning online and
false
meaning offline. The property sends updates whenever the browser's ability to connect to the network changes. The update occurs when the user follows links or when a script requests a remote page. For example, the property should return
false
when users click links soon after they lose internet connection.
Browsers implement this property differently.
In Chrome and Safari, if the browser is not able to connect to a local area network (LAN) or a router, it is offline; all other conditions return
true
. So while you can assume that the browser is offline when it returns a
false
value, you cannot assume that a true value necessarily means that the browser can access the internet. You could be getting false positives, such as in cases where the computer is running a virtualization software that has virtual ethernet adapters that are always "connected." Therefore, if you really want to determine the online status of the browser, you should develop additional means for checking. To learn more, see the HTML5 Rocks article,
Working Off the Grid
.
In Firefox and Internet Explorer, switching the browser to offline mode sends a
false
value. Until Firefox 41, all other conditions return a
true
value; testing actual behavior on Nightly 68 on Windows shows that it only looks for LAN connection like Chrome and Safari giving false positives.
You can see changes in the network state by listening for the events on
window.ononline
and
window.onoffline
.
online = window.navigator.onLine;
online
is a boolean
true
or
false
.
视图 a live example .
To check if you are online, query
window.navigator.onLine
, as in the following example:
if (navigator.onLine) {
console.log('online');
} else {
console.log('offline');
}
If the browser doesn't support
navigator.onLine
the above example will always come out as
false
/
undefined
.
To see changes in the network state, use
addEventListener
to listen for the events on
window.online
and
window.offline
, as in the following example:
window.addEventListener('offline', function(e) { console.log('offline'); });
window.addEventListener('online', function(e) { console.log('online'); });
