# Element Button

JXG.GeometryElement,JXG.CoordsElement
↳ JXG.Text
↳ Text
↳ Button

A text element that contains an HTML button tag. For this element, the attribute "display" has to have the value 'html' (which is the default).

Setting a CSS class: The attribute `cssClass` affects the HTML div element that contains the button element. To change the CSS properties of the HTML button element a selector of the form `.mybutton > button { ... }` has to be used. See the example below.

Access the button element with JavaScript: The underlying HTML button element can be accessed through the sub-object 'rendNodeButton', e.g. to add event listeners.
Defined in: button.js.
Extends Text.

Element Detail
Button

This element has no direct constructor. To create an instance of this element you have to call JXG.Board#create with type "button".
Possible parent array combinations are:
{number|function} x
{number|function} y
{String|function} label
{function} handler
  Parent elements for button elements.

  x and y are the coordinates of the lower left corner of the text box. The position of the text is fixed, x and y are numbers. The position is variable if x or y are functions.

  The label of the input element may be given as string.

  The (optional) handler function which is called when the button is pressed.

Examples:

     var p = board.create('point', [0.5, 0.5], {id: 'p1'});

     // Create a button element at position [1,2].
     var button1 = board.create('button', [1, 2, 'Change Y with JavaScript', function() {
         p.moveTo([p.X(), p.Y() + 0.5], 100);
     }], {});

     // Create a button element at position [1,4].
     var button2 = board.create('button', [1, 4, 'Change Y with JessieCode',
         "$('p1').Y = $('p1').Y() - 0.5;"
     ], {});

    // A toggle button
    var butt = board.create('button', [-2, -2, 'Off', function() {
      var txt;
      butt.value = !butt.value;
      if (butt.value) {
      	txt = 'On';
      } else {
      	txt = 'Off';
      }
    	butt.rendNodeButton.innerHTML = txt;
    }]);

    // Set initial value for the button
    if (!JXG.exists(butt.value)) {
    	butt.value = false;
    }

    var p = board.create('point', [2, -2], {
    	visible: () => butt.value
    });

    var i1 = board.create('input', [-3, 4, 'sin(x)', 'f(x)='], {cssStyle: 'width:4em', maxlength: 2});
    var c1 = board.create('checkbox', [-3, 2, 'label 1'], {});
    var b1 = board.create('button', [-3, -1, 'Change texts', function () {
            i1.setText('g(x)');
            i1.set('cos(x)');
            c1.setText('label 2');
            b1.setText('Texts are changed');
        }],
        {cssStyle: 'width:200px'});

    // Set the CSS class of the button

    // CSS:
    <style>
    .mybutton > button {
      background-color: #04AA6D;
      border: none;
      color: white;
      padding: 1px 3px;
      text-align: center;
      text-decoration: none;
      display: inline-block;
      font-size: 16px;
    }
    </style>

    // JavaScript:
    var button = board.create('button',
        [1, 4, 'answers', function () {}],
        {cssClass:'mybutton', highlightCssClass: 'mybutton'});
