JavaScript/jQuery ResponsiveBox - items

An array of items displayed by the UI component.

Raised Events: onOptionChanged

The items array can contain:

  • Strings
  • Objects with fields described in this section
  • Objects with any other fields. In this case, specify the itemTemplate.

If you need to update the UI component items, reassign the entire items array as shown in the following example:

JavaScript
responsiveBoxInstance.option('items', newItems);

As an alternative to items, you can use the dataSource property. It accepts the DataSource object, whose underlying stores provide an API that allows you to update individual items without reassigning the entire item collection.

NOTE
Do not use the items property if you use dataSource, and vice versa.

disabled

Specifies whether the UI component item responds to user interaction.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false

html

Specifies the HTML markup to be inserted into the item element.

Type:

String

The ResponsiveBox component evaluates the html property's value. This evaluation, however, makes the ResponsiveBox potentially vulnerable to XSS attacks. To guard against these attacks, encode the HTML markup before you assign it to the html property. Refer to the following help topic for more information: Potentially Vulnerable API - html.

You can use the text property as a safe alternative.

location

Specifies the item location and size against the UI component grid.

Type:

Object

|

Array<Object>

If you need to specify different locations for different screens, pass an array of objects with the same structure to the location field.

HTML
<div data-options="dxItem: { 
    location: [
        { row: 0, col: 0, colspan: 3, screen: "lg"},
        { row: 0, col: 0, colspan: 2, screen: "xs sm md"}
    ]
}"> <p>Header</p> </div>

template

Specifies a template that should be used to render this item only.

Type:

template

Template Data: any

The item object to be rendered.

The following types of the specified value are available.

  • Assign a string containing the name of the required template.
  • Assign a jQuery object of the template's container.
  • Assign a DOM Node of the template's container.
  • Assign a function that returns the jQuery object or a DOM Node of the template's container.

The following example adds a custom item to the component. Note that Angular and Vue use custom templates instead of the template property. In React, specify the render property.

jQuery
index.js
$(function() {
    $("#responsiveBoxContainer").dxResponsiveBox({
        // ...
        items: [
            {
                // ...
                template: '<div>Custom Item</div>'
            }
        ]
    });
