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 jqxNumberInput.
  • jqx-widget - applied to the input.
  • jqx-input - applied to the input.
  • jqx-input-invalid - applied to the input when the validation fails.
  • jqx-input-content - applied to the input's content.
  • jqx-widget-content - applied to the input's content.
  • jqx-input-disabled - applied to the input when it is disabled.
  • jqx-fill-state-focus - applied to the widget when it is focused.
  • jqx-fill-state-disabled - applied to the widget when it is disabled.
When you create a custom style with colors and backgrounds for jqxNumberInput, you need to do the following:
  • Add the above CSS classes related to jqxNumberInput
  • After each CSS class, add your theme name.
    For example:
    jqx-input-summer
  • To apply your custom style to jqxNumberInput, you need to set its 'theme' property(option) to point to your theme name string. 
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            // Create jqxNumberInput
            $("#numericInput").jqxNumberInput({ theme: 'summer', width: '250px', height: '25px' });
        });
    </script>
  • The sample below demonstrates how to set the 'Summer' theme to jqxNumberInput.
