Sets the widget's theme.
</p>
jQWidgets uses a pair of css files - jqx.base.css and jqx.[theme name].css. The base stylesheet creates the styles related to the widget's layout like margin, padding, border-width, position. The second css file applies the widget's colors and backgrounds. The jqx.base.css should be included before the second CSS file.
In order to set a theme, you need to do the following:
<ul>
<li>Include the theme's CSS file after jqx.base.css.<br />
The following code example adds the 'energyblue' theme.
<pre><code>
<pre><code><link rel="stylesheet" href="../../../../jqwidgets/styles/jqx.base.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../../../../jqwidgets/styles/jqx.energyblue.css" type="text/css" />
</code></pre>
</code></pre>
</li>
<li>Set the widget's theme property to 'energyblue' when you initialize it.
