not()

not()

The not function evaluates a boolean expression and returns the opposite value.

Syntax

not(expression )

Arguments

expression
The expression is evaluated exactly as if it were passed as an argument to the boolean() function-

Returns

True for an expression that evaluates to false; false for an expression that evaluates to true.

Notes

  • This function should behave similarly to the boolean() function except that it returns the opposite value-
  • You can test if an element doesn't have some attribute-
