The jqxPanel widget represents a jQuery Panel widget. This widget is a container for other widgets or elements. It automatically adds horizontal and vertical scrollbars, if the content is not fully visible
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 jqxPanel 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/jqxscrollbar.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../../jqwidgets/jqxbuttons.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../../jqwidgets/jqxpanel.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            // Create jqxPanel
            $("#jqxpanel").jqxPanel({ width: 250, height: 250 });
        });
    </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 a DIV element within the body of the html document.

<div id='jqxpanel'>
</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 () {
        $("#jqxpanel").jqxPanel({ width: 250, height: 250 });
    });
</script>

To call a function(method), you need to pass the method name and parameters(if any) in the jqxPanel’s constructor.

$('#jqxpanel').jqxPanel('append', element);

To set a property(option), you need to pass the property name and value(s) in the jqxPanel's constructor.

$("#jqxPanel").jqxPanel({ disabled: true });

To get a property(option), you need to pass the property name to the jqxPanel's constructor.

var disabled = $("#jqxPanel").jqxPanel('disabled');

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 panel's layout is updated. The example code below demonstrates how to bind to the ‘layout’ event of jqxPanel.

$("#jqxpanel").on('layout', function () {});
