jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxComboBox is used to represent a jQuery Combobox widget that contains an input field with autocomplete functionality and a list of selectable items displayed in a drop-down.

The addItem() method is used to add a new item to the jqxComboBox widget. If the new item is added, then it returns true otherwise returns false. It accepts a single parameter Item of Object/String type and does not return any value.

The fields that can be used for the new item are:

  • label
  • value
  • disabled
  • checked
  • hasThreeStates
  • html
  • group

Syntax:

$('selector').jqxComboBox('addItem', 'Item' );
