Introduction

The jquery-sth-select select component is built on top of jQuery and offers a good interface for both Desktop and Mobile.

About the component

The component was created from a need: people can't customize native selects using CSS without tricks, and most custom selects in jQuery don't work so well on mobile devices.

The jquery-sth-select is useful for you if you:

  • Have an app built on top of jQuery;
  • Have a web application which needs a custom select interface (the native one does not look so well);
  • Have a responsive web application which needs a custom select that works both on Desktop and Mobile.

How to use in my project?

We're not officially being installed by npm, Bower or Yarn yet. But for now, if you want to test it, you can download the files available in /dist directory and link them in your .html file(s).

<head> 	<link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/jquery-sth-select/dist/sth-select.css" /> 	<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/jquery-sth-select/dist/sth-select.js"></script> </head>

How can I use it? Please, help me!

Wait, little grasshopper. We are not going to leave you in the lurch after made you excited with this awesome component.

HTML API

Creating a simple component just requires you add the sth-select attribute to your tag:

<select sth-select></select>

Also, you can add a title which appears on your select's popup:

<select 	sth-select 	sth-select-title="A title" ></select>

You might want to add a placeholder to your select when no item is selected.

<select 	sth-select 	sth-select-placeholder="A placeholder" ></select>

Sometimes, you have a lot of items and want to be able to search by them. But be aware: we have not the best search algorithm yet.

<select 	sth-select 	sth-select-filter="true" ></select>

If you want to enable case sensitive search:

<select 	sth-select 	sth-select-case-sensitive="true" ></select>

Oh, and almost forgot: the filter field can also has a custom placeholder:

<select 	sth-select 	sth-select-filter-placeholder="Search for an item" ></select>
