The UI Dev

    After exploring all the standard listview types in the series of examples on listview, you must have observed that for a linked list, Jquery Mobile displays a standard "arrow-r" icon to the extreme right of the list. However, you don't want the standard "arrow-r" icon and you need some custom icon there.     Jquery Mobile provides a set of icons that can be used along with listviews in place of the standard "arrow-r" icon. To override the standard icon, set the data-icon attribute on the desired list item to the name of a standard icon. We will see a complete list of icons in the following example.     However, before proceeding to the example, let us also consider a case where we do not wish to have any icon on the list item. This too can be achieved by setting the value of data-icon attribute to false. We will also include this in our example that follows.     Hope you have followed this post. Do drop a line in case you fi...

    In the earlier post we took a look at how we can add an icon to the listview. In the example that follows, we will be taking a look at how to add a thumbnail to the list item. The process of adding a thumbnail is pretty much similar to adding an icon to a list item.      Just add an image tag inside of the list item as the first child. The image would scale to a 80x80 pixel square image and positioned to the left of the list item text.     Lets take a look at the example below to understand exactly how this is done.     The above example is how Jquery Mobile displays thumbnails. But clients or the web designers never design what can be developed easily and so even I thought of having a variation for this example. How about adding responsive images as thumbnails? Images that will scale with the increase in width of a mobile device. I have set up a fiddle that we help us understand how this can be achieved. Let's take a loo...
