Syntax
object.constructor Examples
The following example illustrates the use of the constructor property.
// A constructor function.functionMyObj() { this.number = 1; } var x = newString("Hi"); if (x.constructor == String) document.write("Object is a String."); document.write ("<br />"); var y = new MyObj; if (y.constructor == MyObj) document.write("Object constructor is MyObj."); // Output:// Object is a String.// Object constructor is MyObj.Remarks
The required object is the name of an object or function.
The constructor property is a member of the prototype of every object that has a prototype. This includes all intrinsic JavaScript objects except the Global and Math objects. The constructor property contains a reference to the function that constructs instances of that particular object.
