The abbr property sets or returns the value of the abbr attribute.

The abbr attribute specifies an abbreviated version of the content in a data cell (for non-visual media, such as speech or Braille).

If this attribute is set, the user will only hear the value of the abbr attribute (instead of the entire content of the cell).

All mainstream browsers support the abbr attribute. However, the functionality of this attribute is not implemented in any mainstream browser.

Return the abbr property:

tableheaderObject.abbr

Set the abbr property:

tableheaderObject.abbr=text

Value	Description
text	Specifies a short description of the content of the table header cell.

Return value:	A string, representing the abbreviated text.
