# ElementHandle.$eval() method

This method runs `document.querySelector` within the element and passes it as the first argument to `pageFunction`. If there's no element matching `selector`, the method throws an error.

If `pageFunction` returns a Promise, then `frame.$eval` would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.

**Signature:**

```typescript
class ElementHandle {$eval<Selector extends keyof HTMLElementTagNameMap, Params extends unknown[], Func extends EvaluateFunc<[
        HTMLElementTagNameMap[Selector],
        ...Params
    ]> = EvaluateFunc<[HTMLElementTagNameMap[Selector], ...Params]>>(selector: Selector, pageFunction: Func | string, ...args: Params): Promise<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>;}
```

## Parameters

|  Parameter | Type | Description |
|  --- | --- | --- |
|  selector | Selector |  |
|  pageFunction | Func \| string |  |
|  args | Params |  |

**Returns:**

Promise&lt;Awaited&lt;ReturnType&lt;Func&gt;&gt;&gt;

## Example


```ts
const tweetHandle = await page.$('.tweet');
expect(await tweetHandle.$eval('.like', node => node.innerText)).toBe('100');
expect(await tweetHandle.$eval('.retweets', node => node.innerText)).toBe('10');
```
