Getting Started

jqxNumberInput represents a jQuery widget that allows you to input currency, percentages and any type of numeric data. The edited data can be presented in various formats. Other built-in capabilities are customizable number of digits and decimal digits, currency symbol's string and position, group and decimal separator character.
Every UI widget from jQWidgets toolkit needs its JavaScript files to be included in order to work properly.

The first step is to create html page and add links to the javascript files and css dependencies to your project. The jqxNumberInput widget requires the following files:


The next step is to create a DIV element within the body of the html document.

The last step is to initialize the widget by adding the following script to the html document:

To call a function(method), you need to pass the method name and parameters(if any) in the jqxNumberInput’s constructor.
$("#jqxnumberinput").jqxNumberInput('setDecimal', 100);
    
To get the result of a function(method) call, you need to pass the method name in the jqxNumberInput’s constructor and parameters(if any).
var value = $("#jqxnumberinput").jqxNumberInput('getDecimal');
    
To set a property(option), you need to pass the property name and value(s) in the jqxNumberInput's constructor.
$("#jqxnumberinput").jqxNumberInput({ decimal: 100 });
    
To get a property(option), you need to pass the property name to the jqxNumberInput's constructor.
var decimalValue = $("#jqxnumberinput").jqxNumberInput('decimal');
    
To bind to an event of a UI widget, you can use basic jQuery syntax. Let’s suppose that you want to know when the input value is changed. The example code below demonstrates how to bind to the ‘valuechanged’ event of jqxNumberInput.
$('#numericInput').on('valueChanged', function (event) {
    var value = event.args.value;
    $('#log').html('Value: ' + value);
});
       

Basic Sample

The result of the above code is:
