Typescript禁用特定ID中具有类的所有元素

Question

I have a function that is toggling the enabled / disabled statuses of input fields within a div. This div has a unique ID and the div contains inputs that have the same class name.

const el = document.getElementById('slice_' + slice).getElementsByClassName('shiftSlice');
        for (let i = 0; i < el.length; i++) { 
            el[i].disabled = true;
        }

When I try this, typescript is telling me that [ts] Property 'disabled' does not exist on type 'Element'.

Do I need to cast this element in some way to be able to access the disabled property?

You need to tell TypeScript that this is an input element:

const el = document.getElementById('slice_' + slice).getElementsByClassName('shiftSlice');
for (let i = 0; i < el.length; i++) {
    (<HTMLInputElement>el[i]).disabled = true; // note the type assertion on the element
}
