In this article, we would like to show you the best way to iterate over elements from HTMLCollection working with JavaScript.

Quick solution:

xxxxxxxxxx
 
for (let element of elements) {
    // ...
}

Practical example

Edit

In this example, we use the for...of statement to iterate over the children of the container element and display their outerHTML in the console.

xxxxxxxxxx
 
<!doctype html>
<html>
<body>
  <div id="container">
    <div>Div-1 example text...</div>
    <div>Div-2 example text...</div>
    <div>Div-3 example text...</div>
  </div>
  <script>
​
    let container = document.querySelector('#container');
    let elements = container.children;
​
    for (let element of elements) {
        console.log(element.outerHTML);
    }
​
  </script>
</body>
</html>
