PanelBar PHP Class Overview

The Kendo UI PanelBar for PHP is a server-side wrapper for the Kendo UI PanelBar widget.

Getting Started

Configuration

Below are listed the steps for you to follow when configuring the Kendo UI PanelBar for PHP.

Step 1 Make sure you followed all the steps from the introductory article on Telerik UI for PHP—include the autoloader, JavaScript, and CSS files.

Step 2 Create a PanelBar.

    <?php
    $panelbar = new \Kendo\UI\PanelBar('panelbar');
    $item1 = new \Kendo\UI\PanelBarItem();
    $item1->text("Item 1")
            ->startContent();
    ?>

        First Item Static Content

    <?php
    $item1->endContent();
    $item2 = new \Kendo\UI\PanelBarItem();
    $item2->text("Item 2")
            ->startContent();
    ?>
        Second Item Static Content
    <?php
    $item2->endContent();

    $panelbar->addItem($item1, $item2);
    ?>

Step 3 Output the PanelBar by echoing the result of the render method.

    <?php
    echo $panelbar->render();
    ?>

Event Handling

You can subscribe to all PanelBar events.

Specify Function Names

The example below demonstrates how to subscribe for events by specifying a JavaScript function name.

    <?php
    $panelbar = new \Kendo\UI\PanelBar('panelbar');

    // The 'panelbar_expand' JavaScript function will handle the 'expand' event of the panelbar
    $panelbar->expand('panelbar_expand');

    echo $panelbar->render();
    ?>
    <script>
    function panelbar_expand() {
        // Handle the expand event
    }
    </script>

Provide Inline Code

The example below demonstrates how to subscribe to events by providing inline JavaScript code.

    <?php
    $panelbar = new \Kendo\UI\PanelBar('panelbar');

    // Provide inline JavaScript code that will handle the 'expand' event of the panelbar
    $panelbar->select('function() { /* Handle the expand event */ }');

    echo $panelbar->render();
    ?>

Reference

Client-Side Instances

You are able to reference an existing PanelBar instance via the jQuery.data(). Once a reference is established, use the PanelBar API to control its behavior.

    <?php
    $panelbar = new \Kendo\UI\PanelBar('panelbar');
    echo $panelbar->render();
    ?>
    <script>
    $(function() {
        // The constructor parameter is used as the 'id' HTML attribute of the panelbar
        var panelbar = $("#panelbar").data("kendoPanelBar");
    });
    </script>
