Getting Started
jqxNavBar is a small widget which is built from UL and LI tags. It can be used for creating responsive horizontal/vertical layouts or simple navigation menus.Every UI widget from jQWidgets toolkit needs its JavaScript files to be included in order to work properly.
The first step is to create html page and add links to the javascript files and css dependencies to your project. The jqxNavBar widget requires the following files:
<head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../jqwidgets/styles/jqx.base.css" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="../../scripts/jquery-1.11.1.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="../../jqwidgets/jqxcore.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="../../jqwidgets/jqxnavbar.js"></script><script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-2FX5PV9DNT"></script><script>window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}gtag('js', new Date());gtag('config', 'G-2FX5PV9DNT');</script></head>
The next step is to create an UL with LI tags within the body of the html document.
<div id="navBar"> <ul> <li>1</li> <li>2</li> <li>3</li> </ul></div>
The last step is to initialize the widget by adding the following script to the html document:
<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function () { $("#navBar").jqxNavBar({ height: 40, selectedItem: 0 }); });</script>
To call a function(method), you need to pass the method name and parameters(if any) in the jqxNavBar’s constructor.
To set a property(option), you need to pass the property name and value(s) in the jqxNavBar's constructor.$("#navBar").jqxNavBar('open');
To get a property(option), you need to pass the property name to the jqxNavBar's constructor.$("#navBar").jqxNavBar({ selectedItem: 1 });
To bind to an event of a UI widget, you can use basic jQuery syntax. Let’s suppose that you want to know when the selected item is changed.var selectedItem = $("#navBar").jqxNavBar('selectedItem');
// bind to 'change' event.$('#navBar').on('change', function (event) {});
