Get the value of a property for the first element in the set of matched elements. The .prop() method gets the property value for only the first element in the matched set. It returns undefined for the value of a property that has not been set, or if the matched set has no elements. To get the value for each element individually, use a looping construct such as jQuery's .each() or .map() method. Note: Attempting to change the type property (or attribu

Create a new jQuery object with elements added to the set of matched elements. Given a jQuery object that represents a set of DOM elements, the .add() method constructs a new jQuery object from the union of those elements and the ones passed into the method. The argument to .add() can be pretty much anything that $() accepts, including a jQuery selector expression, references to DOM elements, or an HTML snippet. Do not assume that this method appends

Triggered after the page is successfully loaded and inserted into the DOM. Note: The triggering of this event is deprecated as of jQuery Mobile 1.4.0. It will no longer be triggered in 1.6.0. The replacement for pageload is the pagecontainer widget's pagecontainerload event. In jQuery Mobile 1.4.0, the two events are identical except for their name and the fact that pagecontainerload is triggered on the pagecontainer, whereas pageload is trigg

Duplicates and extends the functionality of a native HTML select element to overcome the limitations of the native control. Selectmenu transforms a <select> element into a themeable and customizable control. The widget acts as a proxy to the original <select>; therefore the original element's state is maintained for form submission and serialization. Selectmenu supports <optgroup> elements and custom markup to render specific present

The clip effect will hide or show an element by clipping the element vertically or horizontally. clip direction (default: "up") String The plane in which the clip effect will hide or show its element. vertical clips the top and bottom edges, while horizontal clips the right and left edges.

Get the children of each element in the set of matched elements, including text and comment nodes. Given a jQuery object that represents a set of DOM elements, the .contents() method allows us to search through the immediate children of these elements in the DOM tree and construct a new jQuery object from the matching elements. The .contents() and .children() methods are similar, except that the former includes text nodes and comment nodes as well as

Selects all elements that are the nth-child of their parent. Because jQuery's implementation of :nth- selectors is strictly derived from the CSS specification, the value of n is "1-indexed", meaning that the counting starts at 1. For other selector expressions such as :eq() or :even jQuery follows JavaScript's "0-indexed" counting. Given a single <ul> containing two <li>s, $( "li:nth-child(1)" ) selects the first <li> while $( "li:eq

Bind an event handler to the "keyup" JavaScript event, or trigger that event on an element. This method is a shortcut for .on( "keyup", handler ) in the first two variations, and .trigger( "keyup" ) in the third. The keyup event is sent to an element when the user releases a key on the keyboard. It can be attached to any element, but the event is only sent to the element that has the focus. Focusable elements can vary between browsers, but form elemen

Utility method for safely retrieving the current location. The browser's location.href may contain the username/password information. getLocation() always returns location.href stripped of the username/password information if present, ensuring that your code is not vulnerable to XSS attacks. jQuery.mobile.path.getLocation() This me

Adds the specified class(es) to each of the set of matched elements while animating all style changes. Similar to native CSS transitions, jQuery UI's class animations provide a smooth transition from one state to another while allowing you to keep all the details about which styles to change in CSS and out of your JavaScript. All class animation methods, including .addClass(), support custom durations and easings, as well as provide a callback for wh
