View Mode Switch Layout With CSS3 and Javascript

In this tutorial written by MARY LOU we're going to create a layout switch with two viewing modes (grid and list).  It's useful for E-commerce Website that allows the users to switch the product view mode to improve the user experiences. 

How to use it:

1. Markup html structure

<div id="cbp-vm" class="cbp-vm-switcher cbp-vm-view-grid">

<div class="cbp-vm-options"> 
<a href="#" class="cbp-vm-icon cbp-vm-grid cbp-vm-selected" data-view="cbp-vm-view-grid">Grid View</a> 
<a href="#" class="cbp-vm-icon cbp-vm-list" data-view="cbp-vm-view-list">List View</a> </div>
<ul>

<li> <a class="cbp-vm-image" href="#"><img src="images/1.png"></a>
<h3 class="cbp-vm-title">Silver beet</h3>
<div class="cbp-vm-price">$19.90</div>
<div class="cbp-vm-details"> Silver beet shallot wakame tomatillo salsify mung bean beetroot groundnut. </div>
<a class="cbp-vm-icon cbp-vm-add" href="#">Add to cart</a> </li>

<li> <a class="cbp-vm-image" href="#"><img src="images/2.png"></a>
<h3 class="cbp-vm-title">Wattle seed</h3>
<div class="cbp-vm-price">$22.90</div>
<div class="cbp-vm-details"> Wattle seed bunya nuts spring onion okra garlic bitterleaf zucchini. </div>
<a class="cbp-vm-icon cbp-vm-add" href="#">Add to cart</a> </li>

...

</ul>
</div>

2. The CSS for the layout
