In this chapter, we made use of some of the available widgets from the jQuery Mobile framework and we built some interactivity into our existing Civic Center application. The widgets that we used included the range slider, the collapsible widget, the listview widget, and the radio button widget. We evaluated and looked at how to use two different third-party plugins—FastClick and HammerJs. We concluded the chapter by taking a look at the concept of Web Accessibility.

In the next chapter, we will rig our Civic Center application with some dynamic data using PHP to connect to a MySQL database. We will take a look at how to connect to a database, fetch data, and also post data to a database. The next chapter is going to be very interesting and code-intensive. Take a break, grab a coffee, and come back prepared to go on an exciting journey to make our application truly dynamic.
