Theme Classes

jQuery Mobile provides two theme classes: a (gray) and b (black). However, you can also create your own, custom class values - all the way up to the letter "z" (See the Themes chapter). The table below lists the available theme classes. The letters (a-z) means that you can specify a letter from a to z. For example: ui-bar-a or ui-bar-b, etc.

Class Description
ui-bar-(a-z) Specifies the color for a bar - headers, footers and other bars
ui-body-(a-z) Specifies the color for a content block - page content panes (deprecated in version 1.4.0), listview items, popups, collapsibles, loader, sliders, and panels
ui-btn-(a-z) Specifies the color for a button (and icon)
ui-group-theme-(a-z) Specifies the color for controlgroups, listviews and collapsible sets
ui-overlay-(a-z) Specifies the background color of the page that the dialog, popup and other page containers appears on top of
ui-page-theme-(a-z) Specifies the color for pages

Grid Classes

Columns in a grid are of equal width (and 100% wide in total), with no border, background, margin or padding. There are five layout grids that can be used:

Grid Class Columns Column Widths Corresponds To Example
ui-grid-solo 1 100% ui-block-a Try it
ui-grid-a 2 50% / 50% ui-block-a|b Try it
