Type	Description
IEnumerable<DxHtmlElement>	A list of HTML elements that have the specified tag.

Remarks

The FindElementsByTag method allows you to retrieve HTML elements (DxHtmlElement objects) that have the specified tag. A DxHtmlElement object exposes properties that you can use to change element display settings in code. The main properties include:

• element.Hidden — Allows you to hide the element.
• element.Style — Allows you to modify CSS style properties applied to the element. This object exposes the SetBackgroundColor, SetForeColor, and SetProperty methods for this purpose.

The following code locates and hides images (elements defined by the ‘img’ tag):

C#

var elements = htmlContentControl.FindElementsByTag("img");
foreach (DxHtmlElement el in elements) {
    el.Hidden = true;
}

VB.NET

Dim elements = htmlContentControl.FindElementsByTag("img")
For Each el As DxHtmlElement In elements
    el.Hidden = True
Next el
