{{ApiRef("HTML DOM")}}
The **`ping`** property of the {{domxref("HTMLAnchorElement")}} interface is a space-separated list of URLs. When the link is followed, the browser will send {{HTTPMethod("POST")}} requests with the body PING to the URLs.
It reflects the `ping` attribute of the {{HTMLElement("a")}} element.
> **Note:** This property is not effective in Firefox and its usage may be limited due to privacy and security concerns.
## Example
```html
<a
id="exampleLink"
href="https://example.com"
ping="https://example-tracking.com https://example-analytics.com"
>Example Link</a
>
```
```js
const anchorElement = document.getElementById("exampleLink");
console.log(anchorElement.ping); // Output: "https://example-tracking.com https://example-analytics.com"
```
