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 ColorPicker.
<?php
$colorpicker = new \Kendo\UI\ColorPicker('colorpicker');
$colorpicker->value('#ff0000');
?>
Step 3 Output the ColorPicker by echoing the result of the render method.

Event Handling
You can subscribe to all ColorPicker events.
Specify Function Names
The example below demonstrates how to subscribe for events by specifying a JavaScript function name.
<?php $colorpicker = new \Kendo\UI\ColorPicker('colorpicker');
// The 'colorpicker_change' JavaScript function will handle the 'change' event of the colorpicker
$colorpicker->change('colorpicker_change');
echo $colorpicker->render();
?>
<script>
function colorpicker_change() {
// Handle the change event
}
</script>
Provide Inline Code
The example below demonstrates how to subscribe to events by providing inline JavaScript code.
<?php
$colorpicker = new \Kendo\UI\ColorPicker('colorpicker');
// Provide inline JavaScript code that will handle the 'change' event of the colorpicker
$colorpicker->change('function() { /* Handle the change event */ }');
echo $colorpicker->render();
?>
Reference
Client-Side Instances
You are able to reference an existing ColorPicker instance via the jQuery.data(). Once a reference is established, use the ColorPicker API to control its behavior.
<?php
$colorpicker = new \Kendo\UI\ColorPicker('colorpicker');
echo $colorpicker->render();
?>
<script>
$(function() {
// The constructor parameter is used as the 'id' HTML attribute of the colorpicker
var colorpicker = $("#colorpicker").data("kendoColorPicker")
});
</script>
