  1. Hey,
    Your control is really great but when you put several controls, all controls are linked. I found a solution for that :
    In your init function :
    $(‘.alternative’.each(function ) { $(this.toggle({ onClick: function (evt, status) { console.log(‘.alternative changed to: ‘ + status, ‘the reverse of: ‘ + !status; }, text: { enabled: ‘ENABLED’, disabled: ‘ENABLED’ }, style: { enabled: ‘success’, disabled: ‘danger’ } }; };
    Maybe this one could help someone )

    • Julien, can you put your code on pastebin or something cos it seems some tags have been stripped. Thanks.

  2. This snippet fixes the syntax errors in the above script:
    $(‘.basic’.each(function) { $(this.toggle({ onClick: function (event, status) { console.log(‘.basic changed to ‘ + status + ‘the reverse of: ‘ + !status; }, text: { enabled: false, disabled: false }, style: { enabled: ‘primary’, disabled: ‘danger’ } }; };

  3. Great control, thanks!
    Just to mention, I think that you are missing a comma in the JS part on this page
    style: { enabled: ‘primary’ // default
    should be
    style: { enabled: ‘primary’, // default
