make framework 7 tool bar like attached
Assistant
To create a Framework7 toolbar that mimics the style in your screenshot (Fossett's Circus logo, title, and subtitle with a purple gradient background and rounded corners), here's a complete example using Framework7's jQuery flavor:

### ✅ **HTML + Framework7 Toolbar Code**

<!-- In your main page (e.g., home.html or index.html) -->
<div class="toolbar custom-toolbar">
  <div class="toolbar-inner">
    <div class="logo-title">
      <img src="img/fossetts-logo.png" alt="Fossett's Circus" class="logo" />
      <div class="title-group">
        <div class="main-title">FOSSETT'S CIRCUS</div>
        <div class="subtitle">Staff Management System</div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

### ✅ **CSS**

.custom-toolbar {
  background: linear-gradient(to right, #3f00ff, #5f0aff); /* Purple gradient */
  color: #fff;
  padding: 10px 20px;
  border-radius: 10px;
  margin: 10px;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}

.logo-title {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  gap: 15px;
}

.logo {
  height: 50px;
}

.title-group {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}

.main-title {
  font-size: 20px;
  font-weight: bold;
  color: yellow;
}

.subtitle {
  font-size: 14px;
  color: #dcdcdc;
}

### ✅ **Notes**
– Place the `fossetts-logo.png` inside the `img/` directory of your app.
– You can add this toolbar in your `pages/home.html`, or if you want it app-wide, inject it inside your `index.html` inside the “ after `#app`.

Let me know if you want to include navigation links or buttons too.

User
make it full screen
Assistant
To make the **Framework7 toolbar full width across the top** (like a full-width banner/header, as shown in your screenshot), you should:

– Use `position: fixed` or place it inside the “ at the top.
– Remove the `margin` and `border-radius` so it spans the full screen edge-to-edge.
– Ensure it overlays content if needed.

Here’s the updated full code:

—

### ✅ **HTML**

<!-- Place inside your index.html or main page HTML -->
<div class="custom-toolbar fullscreen-toolbar">
  <div class="toolbar-inner">
    <div class="logo-title">
      <img src="img/fossetts-logo.png" alt="Fossett's Circus" class="logo" />
      <div class="title-group">
        <div class="main-title">FOSSETT'S CIRCUS</div>
        <div class="subtitle">Staff Management System</div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

—

### ✅ **CSS**

.fullscreen-toolbar {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  z-index: 999;
  background: linear-gradient(to right, #3f00ff, #5f0aff);
  color: #fff;
  padding: 12px 20px;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  box-shadow: 0 2px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
}

.logo-title {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  gap: 15px;
  max-width: 100%;
}

.logo {
  height: 50px;
  max-width: 100%;
}

.title-group {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}

.main-title {
  font-size: 22px;
  font-weight: bold;
  color: yellow;
}

.subtitle {
  font-size: 14px;
  color: #dcdcdc;
}

—

### ✅ **Extra Notes**
– Add padding-top (`60px` or so) to the content below this banner to avoid it being hidden under the fixed toolbar.
– Add this in your `app.css` or “ block if inline.
– Optional: add media queries to adjust font size/logo for smaller screens.

Let me know if you want it inside a Framework7 `navbar` component instead!

User
Make this navbar common for staff related pages in fraework 7
Assistant
To make this **navbar/banner common for all staff-related pages in Framework7 (jQuery flavor)**, follow this approach:

—

### ✅ Step 1: **Create a Reusable Navbar File**
Create a file called `staff-navbar.html` in your `pages/includes/` or `components/` directory:

<!-- pages/includes/staff-navbar.html -->
<div class="custom-toolbar fullscreen-toolbar">
  <div class="toolbar-inner">
    <div class="logo-title">
      <img src="img/fossetts-logo.png" alt="Fossett's Circus" class="logo" />
      <div class="title-group">
        <div class="main-title">FOSSETT'S CIRCUS</div>
        <div class="subtitle">Staff Management System</div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

—

### ✅ Step 2: **Include This Navbar in All Staff Pages**

On each **staff-related page** (like `staff.html`, `staff-login.html`, `staff-dashboard.html`, etc.), load the navbar using jQuery + `$.get()` or Framework7 template router if you're using components.

#### Option 1: jQuery Way (easiest for Core + jQuery flavor)
In each staff page, at the top of the page (inside “), add:

<!-- pages/staff.html -->
<div class="page" data-name="staff">
  <div class="page-content">
    <div id="staff-navbar"></div>

    <!-- Rest of your content -->

  </div>
</div>

<script>
  $(document).ready(function () {
    $('#staff-navbar').load('pages/includes/staff-navbar.html');
  });
</script>

#### Option 2: If you use Framework7 router components:
Instead of using `url: 'pages/staff.html'`, define a **componentUrl** and import the banner in the `.html` file.

—

### ✅ Step 3: **CSS (Global)**
Add this once in your `app.css` or global “:

.fullscreen-toolbar {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  z-index: 999;
  background: linear-gradient(to right, #3f00ff, #5f0aff);
  color: #fff;
  padding: 12px 20px;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  box-shadow: 0 2px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
}

.logo-title {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  gap: 15px;
  max-width: 100%;
}

.logo {
  height: 50px;
  max-width: 100%;
}

.title-group {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}

.main-title {
  font-size: 22px;
  font-weight: bold;
  color: yellow;
}

.subtitle {
  font-size: 14px;
  color: #dcdcdc;
}

.page-content {
  padding-top: 80px; /* To offset fixed toolbar */
}

—

### ✅ Done!

Now your custom Fossett's Circus banner will appear on all staff-related pages without duplicating the HTML.

Let me know if you're using component routing instead of static HTML pages.

Thanks for the update. Let's make this work **step-by-step** in your **Framework7 jQuery + Cordova** setup.

—

### ✅ Goal:
You want to show a **common full-width banner/navbar (like the screenshot)** on **all staff-related pages**, using Framework7 (Core + jQuery flavor).

—

### ✅ Step-by-Step Working Approach

—

#### ✅ **1. Move Banner to `staff-navbar.html`**
Create this file inside your project:

/www/pages/includes/staff-navbar.html

Content of `staff-navbar.html`:

<div class="custom-toolbar fullscreen-toolbar">
  <div class="toolbar-inner">
    <div class="logo-title">
      <img src="img/fossetts-logo.png" alt="Fossett's Circus" class="logo" />
      <div class="title-group">
        <div class="main-title">FOSSETT'S CIRCUS</div>
        <div class="subtitle">Staff Management System</div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

—

#### ✅ **2. Add This in Any Staff Page (e.g., staff.html)**

<div class="page" data-name="staff">
  <div class="page-content">
    <div id="staff-navbar"></div>

    <!-- your content below -->
    <div class="block">
      <p>This is staff page content</p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

<script>
  $(document).on('page:init', '.page[data-name="staff"]', function () {
    $('#staff-navbar').load('pages/includes/staff-navbar.html');
  });
</script>

> ✅ This uses Framework7’s `page:init` event so the code runs **after page is mounted** in the DOM.

—

#### ✅ **3. Add CSS Globally in `app.css`**
Make sure this CSS is in your `css/app.css` file:

.fullscreen-toolbar {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  z-index: 999;
  background: linear-gradient(to right, #3f00ff, #5f0aff);
  color: #fff;
  padding: 12px 20px;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  box-shadow: 0 2px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
}

.logo-title {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  gap: 15px;
}

.logo {
  height: 50px;
}

.title-group {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}

.main-title {
  font-size: 22px;
  font-weight: bold;
  color: yellow;
}

.subtitle {
  font-size: 14px;
  color: #dcdcdc;
}

/* Make space for fixed header */
.page-content {
  padding-top: 90px;
}

—

#### ✅ **4. Confirm File Structure**

Your structure should be like:

www/
├── pages/
│   ├── staff.html
│   └── includes/
│       └── staff-navbar.html
├── css/
│   └── app.css
├── img/
│   └── fossetts-logo.png

—

#### ✅ 5. Reload Cordova App
After saving all files:

cordova clean
cordova build android
cordova run android

Or use `cordova prepare` and re-run APK.

—

### ✅ Confirm Checklist

– [ ] `staff-navbar.html` is present and path is correct.
– [ ] You are using `page:init` to load the navbar dynamically.
– [ ] Logo image is placed in `www/img/fossetts-logo.png`.
– [ ] CSS is in `app.css` and is loading.
– [ ] You gave space (`padding-top`) in `.page-content` for fixed banner.

Thanks! Since you're using **Framework7's native “ structure**, let's enhance **your existing navbar** to match the **design from your screenshot**, with:

– Purple gradient background
– Responsive logo
– Title and subtitle in proper layout
– Left “Back” icon
– Right “Logout” icon

### ✅ Final Adjusted Code for Framework7 Navbar

<div class="navbar custom-navbar">
  <div class="navbar-bg"></div>
  <div class="navbar-inner">
    <div class="left">
      <a href="#" class="link back-to-access">
        <i class="icon f7-icons">arrow_left_circle_fill</i>
      </a>
    </div>
    <div class="title nav-title display-flex align-items-center">
      <img src="img/logo.png" alt="logo" class="responsive-logo" />
      <div class="title-text ml-10">
        <div class="main-title">FOSSETT'S CIRCUS</div>
        <div class="subtitle">Staff Management System</div>
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="right">
      <a href="#" class="link logout-staff">
        <i class="icon f7-icons">power</i>
      </a>

### ✅ CSS to Match Screenshot

/* Purple gradient background */
.custom-navbar .navbar-bg {
  background: linear-gradient(to right, #3f00ff, #5f0aff);
}

/* Adjust title section layout */
.nav-title {
  gap: 10px;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
}

/* Logo sizing */
.responsive-logo {
  height: 45px;
  width: auto;
}

/* Text next to logo */
.title-text {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  line-height: 1.2;
}

.main-title {
  font-size: 18px;
  font-weight: bold;
  color: yellow;
}

.subtitle {
  font-size: 13px;
  color: #dcdcdc;
}

/* Optional spacing between logo and text */
.ml-10 {
  margin-left: 10px;
}

—

### ✅ Tips
– Add this CSS to your main `app.css`.
– Place this “ at the top of **every staff page**, or make it common by including in a shared layout or loading via jQuery.
– If the logo breaks layout on mobile, use media queries to reduce logo or font size.

Let me know if you want to **hide the back icon or logout** on certain pages conditionally, or make it a reusable component.
