Quick Start

In this quick start, you'll learn how to add the InputText widget to an HTML project using HTML markup and jQuery script. We customize the behavior of the widget by setting the length to allow the user to enter using the maxLength option.

To create a new HTML page in your favorite text editor, add the following code and save the document with an .html extension.
Drop down and copy markup
Paste in your favorite text editor.
Copy Code

<!DOCTYPE HTML> <HTML> <head> </head> <body> </body> </HTML>

Paste in your favorite text editor.	Copy Code
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <HTML> <head> </head> <body> </body> </HTML>

Add links to the dependencies to your HTML page within the <head> tags. Find the latest dependencies in the content delivery network (CDN) file at wijmo cdn.

Add the following markup within the <body> tags to create the widget. The <input> element creates the widget and we call its id attribute in jQuery to initialize it.
Drop down and copy markup to paste inside the body tags

<input id="textbox1" ></input>
Within the <head> tags, below the references, add the following script to initialize the widget and set the maximum length.

<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function () { $("#textbox1").wijinputtext( { maxLength: 4 }); }); </script>
Save your HTML file and open it in a browser. The widget appears like the following live widget. Click the spinner to see the increment option increase or decrease the value by 10.
