No, it’s not an array. As specified in DOM4, it’s an HTMLCollection (in modern browsers, at least. Older browsers returned a NodeList).
In all modern browsers (pretty much anything other IE <= 8), you can call Array’s forEach method, passing it the list of elements (be it HTMLCollection or NodeList) as the this value:
var els = document.getElementsByClassName("myclass");
Array.prototype.forEach.call(els, function(el) {
// Do stuff here
console.log(el.tagName);
});
// Or
[].forEach.call(els, function (el) {...});
If you’re in the happy position of being able to use ES6 (i.e. you can safely ignore Internet Explorer or you’re using an ES5 transpiler), you can use Array.from:
Array.from(els).forEach((el) => {
// Do stuff here
console.log(el.tagName);
});
