Last Updated : 31 Jan, 2022

jQuery Mobile is a web-based technology used to make responsive content that can be accessed on all smartphones, tablets, and desktops.

In this article, we will be using the jQuery Mobile panel position option that specifies the side of the screen the panel appears on. This option accepts two possible values are “left” or “right”.

Syntax:

Initializing the panel with the position option.

$( ".selector" ).panel({ position: "right" });

Setting the position option:

$( ".selector" ).panel( "option", "position", "right" );

Getting the position option:

var theme = $( ".selector" ).panel( "option", "position" );

CDN Link: First, add jQuery Mobile scripts needed for your project.

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”//code.jquery.com/mobile/1.5.0-alpha.1/jquery.mobile-1.5.0-alpha.1.min.css”>
<script src=”//code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.min.js”></script>
<script src=”//code.jquery.com/mobile/1.5.0-alpha.1/jquery.mobile-1.5.0-alpha.1.min.js”></script>
