Jquery Mobile - Customizing the search box

    Customizing the Jquery Mobile default styles is often required to match the design visuals provided by your designer and approved by your client. Such is the case with the Jquery Mobile search box as well. The designers often use customized icons for the default search box icons. In the example that follows, we will take a look at how this done and we will use custom icons for the search box in place of the default icons.



    As seen in the example above, in the CSS, we need to use the !important keyword to override the default styles of the Jquery Mobile class.

    Customizing the search box or any other element in Jquery mobile is pretty simple. Hope you have followed the post and followed how to customize the Jquery Mobile default styles for  the HTML5 search input box. Drop a comment in case you need to know more or need help with your Jquery Mobile application. I would be happy to help!

Fusion Table Layer...

    Today we will have a look at the "Fusion Table" Layer example. But before we start with the actual code, we will have a look at what Fusion Table is. Google Fusion Table is a free service for sharing and visualizing data online. It allows you to share data, merge data from multiple tables into interesting derived tables, and see the most up-to-date data from all sources. There is a lot of documentation about Google Fusion Table available on the web. You can visit their home page or the Google Research Blog to gather more information about Fusion Tables.     Let us have a look at the following code. The code is very short and simple to understand!     The few things to look out for in the above code are: The manner in which mapTypeId has been specified! In other Google Maps API v3 examples, we have seen that we specify mapTypeID as ROADMAP, SATELLITE, etc. i.e., all the letters are in uppercase and not in quotes! However, in this...

Satellite to keep eye on Chambal, Palpur Kuno sanctuaries

         In a bid to check the rising incidents of poaching and keep an eye on the flora and fauna of the two sanctuaries in Madhya Pradesh, the government has decided to use satellite to monitor the Chambal and Palpur Kuno region.          The basic field technique, which is used currently, to maintain a log of the region’s vegetation, wildlife does not give the real time data. Therefore, the government has decided to use the Geographical Information System (GIS) Global Positioning System (GPS) for the purpose.          Madhya Pradesh’s leading animal scientist Dr. RJ Rao, who has received training in such satellite monitoring of national reserves from California, said the program ‘ARC Q-9’ is proving to be of great use in protection of the wildlife. They have used the program to prepare a database of the whole Chambal and Kuno region, said Rao. Sourc...

Learning React in #41Tweets

Sounds crazy, right? 😲Not really. It is possible! This is no magic pill ✨ . There is no substitute for practice and experience , but this will get you started and help you make the right decisions in your React journey. When I started with React, the sheer use of ES6 syntax and difference in the coding style, made me not want to use it. But when I learned and practiced ES6 and then learned and practiced React, that is when I truly fell in love with React 😍 I created a Twitter Moment Learning React ⚛️ which is basically a collection of #41Tweets that will get you off the ground on your React journey. I hope you like this new approach to learning React and hope it is helpful in getting you started 🀝Let me know your feedback and keep the conversation going on Twitter 🐦
