Ok, here's a recent version of a script I've been playing with. Essentially, it 'autocompletes' a selection list. What I would like to know is what browsers & which versions it works / crashes on.
Please note it includes new properties for the selection list (userWord & userWord2) and a method within the autoSelect() object
If you decide to swipe the code for your own use -- go ahead -- but please keep my name & url there -- I'm hoping to get it up on my site with full explanation before the end of the weekend.
Test by find "New York" (spaces important) It times out, and backspace resets.....
I have autocomplete showing up where I type into the textbox but when I try to select one with my mouse or keyboard it does not fill in the textbox with the option selected. Code is below. < script type="text/javascript"> $( function() {[code]....
The name list is now getting huge and I would like to allow my admins to be able to type in the first few letters of a buyers name and have the select form "find" what the admin is entering. But I need the value of the buyer to be passed as the buyer's id for DB purposes.
I found a script on these forums that actually does what I want using a <select> field, but there is one little annoyance with it. Whenever a letter key is pressed, the <select> finds the first occurrence of the letter (as usual with a <select> field). It does come back immediately, but it doesn't look good when you are typing through the options and it keeps flashing from one to the other. Code:
I have a autocomplete box using this plugin[URL]... Returns results no problem. I can't get my head round how to add an event when a selection is made. Basically when someone selects one of the autocomplete options I want to redirect to a specific page (index.php?cms&p=tpl&s=edit&tplid='id of selected option')
In my application,there are several autocomplte field is available.When I type "pank" and then it list out the several matching in the autocomplete field and select one and then hit the enter then it submitted the entire form, which will cause the error message. Because there are several more mandatory field are there, which i need to fill up.I was trying to restrict in this way, but i believe this is the wrong way.
I'm using jquery autocomplete to fill a textbox with some text but I need to get the ID of the item too. For this purpose I thought to use the on select event to fill an hidden field the problem is that the on select event is never fired.
how to use the autocomplete jQuery plugin best to my needs. I'm looking to replace a select box with the Autocomplete plugin, but not quite sure how to accomplish this. In my select box, I have the option that is displayed is not the same as the data that is submitted. ex: <option value="123">This is Displayed </option> However, with the autocomplete, since it is using a textbox, the values that are displayed, are submitted. Do I have to hack around using hidden fields to accomplish this type of behaviour?
Does anyone have a library or patch to call a handler if a user leaves an autocomplete field without choosing one of the autocomplete options - i.e. they've entered free text. I'm working with an app that populates multiple fields from a single auto-complete value, and our latest requirement is to clear out a bunch of fields if the user's entered something manually - rejecting autocomplete suggestions. My initial attempts at hooking into onkeyfoo and onblur haven't lead anywhere productive, and I'm hoping someone else has managed to overcome the gnarly event and timing dependencies involved with onkeyfoo and blur being used for standard autocomplete behaviour.
I have found two jquery plugins and i am trying to combine an action but to no avail. what i want to do is after selecting an item from the auto complete box i would like for it then to do a change function and retrieve details. Here are my 2 pieces of code.
I've seen a variety of implementations around that enable selecting all or no checkboxes by using a checkbox to toggle that choice. However, I'm trying to find a way like this: I have two text links on my page: Select All, and Select None. How can I get those links to call a jquery function to select all or select no checkboxes in my form? As a little food for thought:
<head> $(function() { //function for selecting all or none...is there a way to make a single function that passes in a parameter to differentiate between selecting all or selecting none, or do I need a separate function for both?[code]....
How do I fix the problem that autocomplete does not validate, I have heard before that there is a dirty way to do this but did not want to do this before, but now feel i must as my boss wants the site error free !
I've recently got a hold of a function that allows for predictive / autocomplete text (shown below). This is fine when Im using it on the first word, however what I'm trying to do is to get it on anything after the first word (ie the second or third word in the text box). If anyone could give some pointers I would be much obliged.
function autoComplete (dataArray, input, evt) {
if (temp.length == 0) { return; } var match = false; for (var i = 0; i < dataArray.length; i++) { if ((match = dataArray[i].toLowerCase().indexOf (temp.toLowerCase()) == 0)) { break; } } if (match) { var typedText = input.value; if (typeof input.selectionStart != 'undefined') { if (evt.keyCode == 16) { return; } input.value = dataArray[i]; input.setSelectionRange(typedText.length, input.value.length); } else if (input.createTextRange) { if (evt.keyCode == 16) { return; } input.value = dataArray[i]; var range = input.createTextRange(); range.moveStart('character', typedText.length); range.moveEnd('character', input.value.length); range.select(); } else { if (confirm("Are you looking for '" + dataArray[i] + "'?")) { input.value = dataArray[i]; } } } }
I'm using the scriptalicious autocomplete to get the names of cities depending on what a user types in. This is working fine but I would like to narrow the search down by having them select a country from a drop down first, as I have over 1 million cities in the database.
The problem is, I can't get the country chosen into a variable to send to the page.
i have an autocomplete function inside $(function()) and it is working fine.but i need to show some other results on autocomplete for the onchange(dropdown box) event when ever i tried this i am getting 2 auto suggested boxes 1)inside $function 2)onchange event...so, i need to destroy the autocomplete function inside the $function after onchange event.
I want to build an Ajax based autocomplete feature. Being a server side guy, I have little knowledge regarding layers and DHTML stuff. Having already implemented the AJAX part of the app, I am stuck with the layers thing.
The Google Suggest autocomplete is cool. Has anybody written code (free) or adapted Google Suggest kind of thing for their own use (like querying from database and showing results) ? Can you point me to some links or resources on the net.
I am using telerik autocomplete in my application, I want to create the another autocomplete when i click the add button using jquery, can any help me in solving this issue.I need the jquery to create the autocomplet.
I have a jQuery autocomplete application where the user types a query into a text box and autocomplete suggestions are returned. (It's working fine.) I would like to restrict the suggestions that are returned by passing the value of the selected option from a drop-down list (#deptField3) to the PHP script that does the autocomplete look-up.
I want to use these items in the following autocomplete script, but it is not working... How do I get it to recognize the array values? I am sure it has something to do with how I call the variable $given_themes...
I have been working on an autocomplete script that I have modified to be used with JSP's/Servlets. The script is working very nicely, except for one minor issue. When the user selects from the suggestions in the drop down list, for some unexplained reason, an extra space is added to the word in the text field. Also, I would like to modify this script further, such that if a user enters more than one word in the text field, the autocomplete script is activated for each word, instead of ONLY the first word.
I have added the entire code for the JavaScript file that is responsible for the autocomplete feature below.
The link from where you can download the autocomplete files is here:
[URL]
a demo of the script can be found here:
[URL]
FYI, I am using the version that uses XML.
Below is the JavaScript code for the autocomplete file I am using:
if(typeof(bsn)=="undefined")_b=bsn={};if(typeof(_b.Autosuggest)=="undefined")_b.Autosuggest={};else alert("Autosuggest is already set!");_b.AutoSuggest=function(b,c){if(!document.getElementById)return 0;this.fld=_b.DOM.gE(b);if(!this.fld)return
I have this basic auto complete JavaScript that works well, but you need to hard code the web page. What I'm trying to do is send the "Autocomplete" variable data to the page using a perl script.the working JavaScript code looks like this:
var CustomArray=new Array('an apple','alligator','elephant','pear','kingbird','kingbolt','kingcraft','kingcup','kingdom','kingfish er','kingpin','SML');
Now the new code is: var CustomArray=new Array(Autocomplete);
And the Perl script is sending back the data to the browser looking like this:
var Autocomplete = 'an apple','alligator','elephant','pear','kingbird','kingbolt','kingcraft','kingcup','kingdom','kingfish er','kingpin','SML'
the more i deep to javascript more i got confused..!! i have put a autocomplete texbox in a row.. which have two more buttons Add/Remove..! With add u can append clone row under original row... and withy delete u can delete the row. Problems when i add new row... which make clone of original row..!! which means that Id of autocomplete also get cloned.!
