3 Mar 20257 minutes to read

The Essential JS 2 for JavaScript (global script) is an ES5 formatted pure JavaScript framework which can be directly used in latest web browsers.

Control Initialization

The Essential JS 2 JavaScript controls can be initialized by using either of the following ways.

Using local script and style references in a HTML page.
Using CDN link for script and style reference.

Using local script and style references in a HTML page

Step 1: Create an app folder myapp for Essential JS 2 JavaScript controls.

Step 2: You can get the global scripts and styles from the Essential Studio JavaScript (Essential JS 2) build installed location.

Syntax:

Script: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\dist\global\{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js

Styles: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\styles\material.css

Example:

Script: C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-popups\dist\global\ej2-popups.min.js

Styles: C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-popups\styles\material.css

The below located script and style file contains all Syncfusion JavaScript (ES5) UI control resources in a single file.

Scripts: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\dist\ej2.min.js

Styles: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\material.css

Step 3: Create a folder myapp/resources and copy/paste the global scripts and styles from the above installed location to myapp/resources location.

Step 4: Create a HTML page (index.html) in myapp location and add the Essentials JS 2 script and style references.

<!DOCTYPE html>
  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
       <head>
            <title>Essential JS 2 Tooltip</title>
            <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
            <link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

            <!-- Essential JS 2 Tooltip's global script -->
            <script src="resources/ej2-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
            <script src="resources/ej2-popups.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
       </head>
       <body>
       </body>
  </html>

Step 5: Now, add the Tooltip element and initiate the Essential JS 2 Tooltip control in the index.html by using following code

<!DOCTYPE html>
  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
       <head>
            <title>Essential JS 2 Tooltip</title>
            <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
            <link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

            <!-- Essential JS 2 Tooltip's global script -->
            <script src="resources/ej2-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
            <script src="resources/ej2-popups.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
       </head>
       <body>
            <!-- Add the HTML span element  -->
            <div id='container'>
                <div style="margin: 50px;">
                    <span id='target'>Show Tooltip</span>
                </div>
            </div>
            <script>
                // Initialize Essential JS 2 JavaScript Tooltip control
                var tooltip = new ej.popups.Tooltip({
                    width: '150px',
                    height: '40px',
                    content: 'Tooltip with specific width and height'
                });
                tooltip.appendTo('#target');
            </script>
       </body>
  </html>

Step 6: Now, run the index.html in web browser, it will render the Essential JS 2 Tooltip control.

Using CDN link for script and style reference

Step 1: Create an app folder myapp for the Essential JS 2 JavaScript controls.

Step 2: The Essential JS 2 control’s global scripts and styles are already hosted in the below CDN link formats.

Syntax:

Script: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/dist/global/{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js

Styles: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/styles/material.css

Example:

Script: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-popups/dist/global/ej2-popups.min.js

Styles: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-popups/styles/material.css

We can also use CRG to generate combined control styles.

Step 3: Create a HTML page (index.html) in myapp location and add the CDN link references. Now, add the Tooltip element and initiate the Essential JS 2 Tooltip control in the index.html by using following code.

index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>
    <title>Essential JS 2 Tooltip</title>
    <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
    <link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/29.1.33/ej2-base/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/29.1.33/ej2-popups/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet"
        type="text/css" />
    <link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/29.1.33/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet"
        type="text/css" />
    <!-- Essential JS 2 Tooltip's global script -->
    <script src="//cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/21.2.3/dist/ej2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/syncfusion-helper.js" type ="text/javascript"></script>
</head>

<body>
    <!-- Add the HTML span element  -->
    <div id='container'>
        <div style="display: inline-block; position: relative; left: 50%;top: 100px;transform: translateX(-50%);">
            <span id='target'></span>
        </div>
    </div>
    <script>
        //Initialize Essential JS 2 JavaScript Tooltip component
        var tooltip = new ej.popups.Tooltip({
            width: '150px',
            height: '40px',
            content: 'Tooltip with specific width and height'
        });
        tooltip.appendTo('#target');

        var button = new ej.buttons.Button({
            content: 'Show Tooltip'
        });
        button.appendTo('#target');
    </script>
</body>

</html>

Step 4: Now, run the index.html in web browser, it will render the Essential JS 2 Tooltip control.
