# 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 {
$eval<
Selector extends string,
Params extends unknown[],
Func extends EvaluateFunc<
[ElementHandle<NodeFor<Selector>>, ...Params]
> = EvaluateFunc<[ElementHandle<NodeFor<Selector>>, ...Params]>
>(
selector: Selector,
pageFunction: Func | string,
...args: Params
): Promise<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>;
}
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| ------------ | -------------- | ----------- |
| selector | Selector | |
| pageFunction | Func \| string | |
| args | Params | |
**Returns:**
Promise&lt;Awaited&lt;ReturnType&lt;Func&gt;&gt;&gt;
## Example
```ts
const tweetHandle = await page.$('.tweet');
expect(await tweetHandle.$eval('.like', node => node.innerText)).toBe('100');
expect(await tweetHandle.$eval('.retweets', node => node.innerText)).toBe('10');
```
