jQWidgets jqxComboBox enableItem() Method

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful and optimized framework, platform-independent, and widely supported. The jqxComboBox is used to represent a jQuery combobox widget that contains an input field with auto-complete functionality and a list of selectable items displayed in a drop-down.

The enableItem() method is used to enable an item. It accepts a single parameter item of object/string type and it does not return any value.

The following fields can also be used for the enabled item:

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

Syntax:

$('selector').jqxComboBox('enableItem', 'Item' );
