jQuery Mobile Toolbar tapToggleBlacklist Option

jQuery Mobile is a JavaScript library that is used to develop responsive web applications and websites that are accessible on a variety of devices like mobiles, tablets, and desktops, etc. jQuery Mobile is built on top of jQuery.

In this article, we will use the jQuery Mobile Toolbar tapToggleBlacklist option to prevent the toolbar widget to toggle its visibility when the user taps a specific area of the webpage. The tapToggleBlacklist option accepts a string in which we can pass the selector of the element, on which when the user taps, the visibility of the toolbar will not be toggled.

Syntax:

Initialize the toolbar with the specified tapToggleBlacklist option:

$( ".selector" ).toolbar({
  tapToggleBlacklist: ".do-not-toggle-on-tap"
});

Get the tapToggleBlacklist option:

var tapToggleBlacklist = 
    $(".selector").toolbar( "option", "tapToggleBlacklist" );

Set the tapToggleBlacklist option:

$(".selector").toolbar( "option", 
    "tapToggleBlacklist", ".do-not-toggle-on-tap" );

Example: In the output below when we tap on the green area the visibility of the fixed toolbar is not toggled because the green area has class “do-not-toggle-on-tap” which is passed as the value of the tapToggleBlacklist option.
