similar to: Autocompleter question

Any ideas how I can submit say, a person ID instead of the person''s name on an autocompleter input field? Surely this is a common need. Thanks! Daniel

I am furiously trying to find what I am looking for in Pickaxe book and not finding it. I''m getting some values back from a posted form and I need to get the ''id'' number off the backend. The ''String'' will always come back to me as... Some_name\r\n123 where 123 is actually the id number which I need to execute the find. The reason they are coming back

I''m using the autocomplete function, and need a way to grab a second value from the ajax request... an example would probably speak better: This is my HTML: <input name="CustomerName" id="CustomerName" type="text" /> <div id="CustomerList"></div> <input name="CustomerID" id="CustomerID"

I have been working with the Ajax.Autocompleter for about a day so forgive my ignorance. Is there any value in adding additional callbacks. I want perform an action when the user selects a choice. So I was thinking of adding an option {select: function(selectedElement) {}} similar to the callbacks on Ajax.Request in the prototype library. Call me out if you think I am crazy my feelings

Hi, i hope that''s the correct place for this question. I must update two input text from autocomplete. The list is, for exemple: <ul> <li> <span class="comune_name">pippo</span> <span class="lat" style="display:none">1.2</span> <span class="long" style="display:none">3.0</span>

I''m sure there is an easy way to do this, but it is one of those things that is incredibly difficult to search for. How can I disable an ''Ajax.Autocompleter'' element from working ''on the fly''? I have a page where I''m using two (I know it''s crazy) Ajax.Autocompleter elements and once one of them has got a result I want the other field

Hello everybody. I''m wondering if there is away with scriptaculous to update multiple form fields with data after finishing an autocomplete request. Heres an example. Joe BlowSchmoe fills in his name and starts to type in the customer number, he selects the approprate customer number from autocomplete list, and bam the address associated with the customer number is populated into the

Hi everyone, I need to trigger a Rails action after the autocompletion is completed (when the user has selected an option). From the scriptaculous doc, I figured out ''afterUpdateElement'' is the place to be but I wonder if/how and where I can hook my javascript code to this event in Rails code (I''d like to keep using the helper, if possible)? I tried passing many

Hi everybody, I''d like to add a custom action to be triggered after/when an autocompleted field has been/is beeing updated by the autocompletion process. I tried the obvious - a field observer -, but it doesn''t work (see code below). I know I could write the autocompletion code myself, but I wonder if there is a simpler/more elegant way? Any idea? TIA Alain The

hi, i''d like to create an Ajax.Autocompleter with paging... my basic idea is to use the afterUpdateElement to check if the selected item has a attribute telling it to make a new ajax call... my problem is, that i have no clue how to trigger the getUpdatedChoices of my ajax.autocompleter from within the afterUpdateElement function, nor how to set an

How do you pass the selected value to the function? new Ajax.Autocompleter(''text'', ''auto'', ''file'', {paramName:''autocomplete'', updateElement:sayhi}); function sayhi(???){ alert(???); } I''ve tried element and element.value but that didn''t work. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You

Hi all, Is there a known bug with Ajax.Updater not working in IE6? I''m having trouble with a Autocompleter control that calls a function that contains an Ajax.Updater as an AfterUpdateElement callback. It works fine in firefox, but I don''t think Ajax.Updater gets called under IE. http://pastebin.com/563889 1. function updater(input, item) { 2. var

I just want to confirm that it''s *not* possible to sort <tr>s in tables.... Jamie

Can anyone recommend good books, online tutorials, or any other learning materials for Javascript - specifically Object Oriented Programming using JS? I want the rest of my dev team to be able to help me code in JS, specifically using prototype and scriptaculous. I''ve been using JS for so long, and I kinda "grew up" on OOP programming but my whole team is Coldfusion

I was wondering if someone could help me with an autocomplete problem. I have the autocomplete div receiving a <UL> that looks like: <ul> <li>Name<br>Email</li> </ul> When the user hits enter and the value is filled into the text field it''s putting both the name and email in the field. I just want the name. Funny this works in Firefox but not IE. I
