Getting Started
Configuration
Below are listed the steps for you to follow when configuring the Kendo UI Switch 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 Switch.
<?php
$switchButton = new \Kendo\UI\SwitchButton('switch');
?>
Step 3 Output the Switch by echoing the result of the render method.
<?php

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