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 jqxListBox is used to illustrate a jQuery ListBox widget which comprises a list of electable elements.

The addItem() method is used to add a new item to the stated list. Moreover, it returns true, in case the new item is attached or else false, in case the item is not appended. It has a parameter named item which is of type object or string and it does not returns anything.

The following fields can be utilized in favor of the new item:

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

 

Syntax:

When item is of type string:

$("#jqxListBox").jqxListBox('addItem', 'Item');  

When item is of type object:

$("#jqxListBox").jqxListBox('addItem', { label: 'Text' value: 'Id'} );
