Styling and Appearance

jQWidgets uses a pair of css files - jqx.base.css and jqx.[theme name].css. The base stylesheet creates the styles related to the widget's layout like margin, padding, border-width, position. The second css file applies the widget's colors and backgrounds. The jqx.base.css should be included before the second CSS file.

Below is the list of CSS classes used by jqxButtons.

  • jqxButton, jqxRepeatButton, jqxLinkButton and jqxToggleButton Style

  • jqx-button - applied to jqxButton's outer div element.
  • jqx-link - applied to the jqxLinkButton's anchor element.
  • jqx-fill-state-normal - applied to button when it's state is default/normal.
  • jqx-fill-state-hover - applied to button when it's state is hovered i.e the mouse cursor is over the button.
  • jqx-fill-state-pressed - applied to button when it's state is pressed i.e the mouse button is down.
  • jqx-fill-state-disabled - applied to button it is disabled.
When you create a custom style with colors and backgrounds for jqxButton, jqxRepeatButton, jqxLinkButton and jqxToggleButton, you need to do the following:
  • Add the above CSS classes related to jqxButtons
  • After each CSS class, add your theme name.
    For example:
    jqx-button-energyblue
