Getting Started

jqxColorPicker represents a jQuery UI widget that allows you to easily pick a color. You can configure the jqxColorPicker's color mode, input a color in hex or rgb format.
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 jqxColorPicker widget requires the following files:

The next step is to create a DIV element within the body of the html document.
The last step is to initialize the widget by adding the following script to the html document:
To call a function(method), you need to pass the method name and parameters(if any) in the jqxColorPicker’s constructor.

$("#jqxColorPicker").jqxColorPicker(‘setColor’, '#ff00ff');
    

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

var color = $("#jqxColorPicker").jqxColorPicker(‘getColor’);
    

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

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

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

var isDisabled = $("#jqxColorPicker").jqxColorPicker('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 color is changed.. The example code below demonstrates how to bind to the ‘colorchange’ event of jqxColorPicker.

$("#jqxColorPicker").bind('colorchange', function (event) {
           
});
    

Basic Sample

The result of the above code is:
