The first step is to create html page and add links to the javascript files and
css dependencies to your project.
The jqxMenu element requires the following
files:
The next step is to add the html element within the body of the html page.<script type="text/javascript" src="../scripts/webcomponents-lite.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../jqwidgets/jqxcore.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../jqwidgets/jqxcore.elements.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../jqwidgets/jqxdata.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../jqwidgets/jqxmenu.js"></script>
The last step is to initialize the element settings:<jqx-menu settings="elementSettings"></jqx-menu>
To call a function(method), you need to pass the method name and parameters(if any) in the jqxMenu's instance.<script type="text/javascript">
JQXElements.settings["elementSettings"] =
{
animationShowDuration:400, theme:"light"
}
</script>
To get the result of a function after calling it, you can use the following syntax: To set a property(option), you need to use the property name and value(s) along with the jqxMenu's instance.<script>
window.onload = function () {
var element = document.querySelector("jqx-menu");
element.closeItem(Item1);
}
</script>
You can also set properties of HTML Elements by using Attributes. Traditionally, attributes are used to set the initial state of an element. Properties with camelCase naming have dash-based attributes. For example: A property "dataSource" will have an attribute called "data-source".window.onload = function() {
document.querySelector("jqx-menu").animationShowDuration = 350;
}
window.onload = function() {
var propertyValue = document.querySelector("jqx-menu").animationShowDuration;
}
Event binding can be defined in the HTML as an attribute. The syntax is: 'on-' and the event's name. Event Names with camelCase naming have dash-based attributes. The attribute's value is the event handler's name. The addEventListener
function can also be used for event binding.
<script>
window.onload = function () {
var element = document.querySelector("jqx-menu");
element.addEventListener("closed", function(event){
// Your code here
});
}
</script>
