Overview

This article is part two of a two part series that demostrates the Search Form UI pattern, implemented using Tizen Web Application Framework. Search Form typically used to fine refine search criteria based on user choice for multiple fields. This application is one of the search form used for finding properties. This form basically consists of search field with expandable list where user can select different options to meet his search criteria

SearchForm HTML Page

The html page is divided into different sections like search field with tabbed menu in header, expandable list in content area and footer with context menu for reset and apply fields and cancel buttons in horizontal layout.

SearchForm Header

The header consists both search field and tabbed menu. To create Tabbed Menu horizontally aligned in header as shown in screenshot, the list view is placed inside div element with data-role as "navbar"

<div data-role="header" data-position="fixed">
  <div data-role="tabbar">
    <ul>
	  <li><a id="header-btn-1">For Sale</a></li>
	  <li><a id="header-btn-2">For Rent</a></li>
	  <li><a id="header-btn-3">For Sold</a></li>
	</ul>
  </div>
</div>

SearchForm Content

The Content Area for SearchField changes with respect to list item, to achieve this three separate content sections are created and dynamically loaded into html page using javascript on user selected tabbed item. The Content area consists of three div elements with sliders and toogleswitch in expandable as shown in screenshot.

<div id="contentarea1" data-role="collapsible-set">
  <div  data-role="collapsible" data-collapsed="true">
    <h1>
	  <a>For-Sale Item One<span class="ui-li-text-sub">All Types</span>

    $("#contentarea2").css({display:"none"});
    $("#contentarea3").css({ display:"none"});
    $("#contentarea1").css({ display:"block"});
  });

  $("#header-btn-2").on( "click", function(event, ui) {
    $("#contentarea1").css({ display:"none"});
    $("#contentarea3").css({ display:"none"});
    $("#contentarea2").css({ display:"block"});
  });

  $("#header-btn-3").on( "click", function(event, ui) {
    $("#contentarea1").css({ display:"none"});
    $("#contentarea2").css({ display:"none"});
    $("#contentarea3").css({ display:"block"});
  });
  var elem = document.getElementById("contentarea1");
  elem.style.display = "block";
