<html>
 
<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href=
"http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.min.css" />
 
    <script src=

    </script>
</head>
 
<body>
    <center>
        <h1>GeeksforGeeks</h1>
 
        <h4>
            Horizontal controlgroup button 
            using jQuery Mobile
        </h4>
    </center>
 
    <div data-role="controlgroup" data-type="horizontal">
        <button data-role="button">No icon</button>
 
        <button data-role="button" data-icon="delete"
            data-iconpos="left" id="gfg">Left
        </button>
         
        <button data-role="button" data-icon="delete"
            data-iconpos="right" id="gfg">right
        </button>
         
        <button data-role="button" data-icon="delete"
            data-iconpos="top" id="gfg">top
        </button>
         
        <button data-role="button" data-icon="delete"
            data-iconpos="bottom" id="gfg">bottom
        </button>
         
        <button data-role="button" data-icon="delete"
            data-iconpos="notext" id="gfg">icon only
