Splitter JSP Tag Overview

The Splitter JSP tag is a server-side wrapper for the Kendo UI Splitter widget.

Getting Started

Configuration

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

Step 1 Make sure you followed all the steps from the introductory article on Telerik UI for JSP.

Step 2 Create a new action method to render the view.

    @RequestMapping(value = {"index"}, method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public String index() {

        return "web/splitter/index";
    }

Step 3 Add the Kendo UI taglib mapping to the page.

    <%@taglib prefix="kendo" uri="https://www.telerik.com/kendo-ui/jsp/tags"%>

Step 4 Add a splitter tag.

<c:url value="/web/splitter/content/1" var="ajaxContent1" />

<kendo:splitter name="splitter" orientation="horizontal">
    <kendo:splitter-panes>
        <kendo:splitter-pane id="left_pane" size="100px" collapsible="true">
            <p>
                Left pane
            </p>
        </kendo:splitter-pane>
        <kendo:splitter-pane id="ajax_pane" collapsible="false" contentUrl="${ajaxContent1}"></kendo:splitter-pane>
        <kendo:splitter-pane id="right_pane" size="20%" collapsible="true">
            <p>
                Right pane
            </p>
        </kendo:splitter-pane>
    </kendo:splitter-panes>
</kendo:splitter>

Event Handling

Subscribe to Events

You can subscribe to all events exposed by Kendo UI Splitter by the handler name.

<kendo:splitter name="splitter" orientation="horizontal" expand="splitter_expand" collapse="splitter_collapse">
    <kendo:splitter-panes>
        <kendo:splitter-pane id="left_pane" size="100px" collapsible="true">
            <p>
                Left pane
            </p>
        </kendo:splitter-pane>
        <kendo:splitter-pane id="right_pane" size="20%" collapsible="true">
            <p>
                Right pane
            </p>
        </kendo:splitter-pane>
    </kendo:splitter-panes>
</kendo:splitter>

<script>
    function splitter_expand() {
        //Handle the expand event
    }

    function splitter_collapse() {
        //Handle the collapse event
    }
</script>

Reference

Existing Instances

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

//Put this after your Kendo Splitter tag declaration
<script>
$(function() {
    // Notice that the Name() of the splitter is used to get its client-side instance
    var splitter = $("#splitter").data("kendoSplitter");
});
</script>
