Project DescriptionThe goal of jQUI-DNN is to provide an easily deployable solution for developers wanting to use jQuery UI in a DotNetNuke context. The core and themes are provided as separate modules for easy deployment in a DotNetNuke host. It is developed in C#.
Current development
The latest development has been released in the current downloads. More features will be added as the need arises or someone specifically asks for them. So don't hesitate to drop us a line, or code yourself and aid us in making the integration package complete.
Current release
The current release is the
jQuery Core module 0.6.0. It is basically only a version upgrade to jQuery 1.4.2, but also adds a UseInlineBlockInitialization property to the Tabs control, which makes it render a script block directly after the html structure for a more timely initialization of the widget as opposed to using the document.ready event. You can try it out at our demo site
http://jquidnn.succell.net/.
The extras package has not been modified and still works with the upgraded core module.
Both releases are packaged for installation as DNN modules. The core module package contains the core functionality for the jQuery UI integration. It includes the web controls, infrastructural code for including the required javascript libraries on the page, and the smoothness theme. Current library versions are:
- jquery-1.4.2.min.js
- jquery-ui-1.7.2.min.js
The currently implemented web controls are:
- DatePicker (Textbox-Popup-Mode)
- Dialog
- Progressbar
- Slider
- Tabs
The Extras module contains supplementary web controls and widget code for non-core widgets. The currently implemented web controls are:
Currently, we have no End-User Documentation for the module package, but the provided web controls are now documented in code, and the compiled xml documentation files are available as a separate release (see below). To view a demo of the available controls, simply place the core module on a tab, or visit the demo page at
http://jquidnn.succell.net/.
After installing the DotNetNuke modules, be sure to mark them as premium, so they are not visible in the module selection list. The intended usage is not as modules, but as a library for developers wanting to use jQuery in their module views.
For developers wanting to create DotNetNuke components using the supplied web controls, we now supply four releases containing just the dll and xml documentation files, a debug and a release build. Be sure to grab those, if you want to start developing:
Products using JQUI-DNN
Like every developer, we also like to see examples of work based on our library. So, if you are developing modules or skins using our library,
please show them off by leaving a link in the discussion board :-) If you like, we can even link them in the list below.
- succell.news makes heavy use of JQUI-DNN in the administration backend.
More developers are welcome to help the project!
