jQWidgets jqxTree updateItem() Method

Last Updated : 13 Oct, 2021

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 jqxTree represents a jQuery widget that is used to display a hierarchical collection of items. To display the collection of items, we can populate from ‘UL’ or by using its ‘source’ property.

The updateItem() method is used to update an item. It accepts two parameters item and new_item of object type and does not return any value.

Syntax:

$('Selector').jqxTree('updateItem', item, new_item);
