jQWidgets jqxDropDownList template Property

Last Updated : 11 Sep, 2021

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxDropDownList widget is a jQuery drop-down list that contains a list of selectable items displayed in the drop-down list.

The template property is used to set or return the template as an alternative to the default styles. It accepts String type value and its default value is ‘default’.

Its possible values are as follows.

‘default’: It is the default template and its style depends on the “theme” property value.
‘primary’: It sets the dark blue style for extra visual weight.
‘success’: It sets the green style for successful or positive action.
‘warning’: It sets the orange style that represents caution.
‘danger’: It sets the red style that represents the dangerous or negative action.
‘info’: It sets the blue button, not tied to a semantic action or use.

Syntax:

Set the template property.

$('selector').jqxDropDownList({ template: String });

Return the template property.

var template = $('selector').jqxDropDownList('template');
