Element: ariaRowCount property

The ariaRowCount property of the Element interface reflects the value of the aria-rowcount attribute, which defines the total number of rows in a table, grid, or treegrid.

In this example the aria-rowcount attribute on the element with an ID of semantic-table is set to "100", representing the total number of rows in the table, rather than the currently visible rows. Using ariaRowCount we update the value to "101".
