similar to: Ajax.Autocompleter - multiple inputs

Hi, I wrote yesterday ( http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails-spinoffs/2005-November/001307.h tml ), but with no replies. This mail is not to spam, just a further clarification of the problem: This little bit of code illustrates the problem: <script language="javascript"> function ac(elm) { var val = $F(''val''); new

Hi, I''m trying to get autocomplete to work but have been having some problems. It seems that Ajax.Autocompleter(...) is not getting called. I''ve put in a alert in control.js: Autocompleter.Local = Class.create(); Autocompleter.Local.prototype = Object.extend(new Autocompleter.Base(), { initialize: function(element, update, array, options) { window.alert("GOT

Hi all, I have used the sciptaculous Ajax autocompleter a few times now. A major problem I have at the moment is with a text field that has focus when a page loads. The text field has an autocompleter associated with it, but when the user starts typing, the firefox saved form data autocompleter appears first, and the scriptaculous one is partially hidden behind it. Has anyone else encountered

What is the best way to show that Autocompleter is searching for the dropdown list. It is taking several seconds to load the list deco

Hi All Is there any way to pass a dynamic parameter do AutoCompleter URL? I want to pass the current text on autocompleter input field plus a parameter "last", with data from field "last" When i try to use "parameters" option, they get only first value of field "last", not dynamicaly. Thanks.

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

Has anyone been able to make scrollable results for an autocompleter? Thanks!

Hi, In the last two days I posted 4 different questions to this forums, but no single answer... Is it personal ? ;-) Anywayz I continue trying, so maybe I have luck this time... The question: in an autocomplete component, is it possible to make the results-div apear when the text field is getting focus? Thanx in advance, Ron

Hey guys, I have a field that will have very few autocomplete options. I have an ajax.autocompleter on it that works great, but I wanted to make it start autocompleting as soon as the field is blur()ed, so that even if the field is empty, the list will still appear. Like a combo box in windows. How can I do this? Setting :min_chars => 0 (or even -1) didn''t work... -Josh

Hello, I''ve looked at a few autocompleters, and really like Script.aculo.us''. I have two suggestions for making it even better: 1) Make the default HTTP method GET, or at least clearly document how to change it (through the prototype options). This will make it possible for the browser as well as intermediaries to cache the results. 2) Make it easier to control the URIs that

I''m trying to pass additional variables to my autocomplete data page. I used the parameters option but this only sends a static variable (i.e. I can''t do something like parameters:"param1="+$ (''checkbox1'').checked). I thought I could fix this by calling a new Ajax.Autocompleter every time the checkbox was clicked but that just created duplicate

Hello, currently I''m working on a JavaScript-on-screen-keyboard for use with touch screens. To autocomplete inputs I want to use the Ajax.Autocompleter control. The problem is that Ajax.Autocompleter only responds to onkeypress events made with a real keyboard, but my on-screen-keyboard causes onchange events when a letter is clicked and appended to the input field. So, is there a way to

Hi all, I''ve noticed slightly erratic behaviour with the autocompleter on IE. In controls.js, the render method calls the (IE only) scrollIntoView method, which causes the element to be moved to the bottom or the top of the viewport (by passing in true or false, bizzarely). This is perfectly acceptable behaviour for render in general, but this causes the dropdown list to jump around as

Hi Rails, I am having trouble setting up an autocomplete text field. Using rails 1.0.0 and just trying to copy the simple scriptaculous demo (http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/autocompleter) fails. My view and controller are set up the same way. In firefox 1.0.4 (and safari, don''t remember the version) I get the Ajax.Autocompleter error in the javascript console when loading the

Hi All Before I investigate further, has anyone implemented an Autocompleter that will auto scroll down / up the results div as the user moves down through the list (using arrow keys) ? Any pointers / thoughts appreciated. Best Matt *********************************************************************************** The Royal Bank of Scotland plc. Registered in Scotland No 90312.

Hi list, First, I have a textbox "username". I also have an Autocompleter'd textbox called "products". Is there a "built in" way to have the Autocompleter's Ajax Request pass the value in the "username" field ? (I tried adding "parameters: $F('username')" to the Autocompleter's options, but, that grabs the initial username

Running Scriptaculous 1.8.1 I''m experiencing an issue with the autocompleter. As part of a search page, I''ve added and autocomplete field. During entering text, the first entry in the autocomplete list is automatically selected- once the user hits enter (regardless if that is the entry he''s looking for or not), the form is submitted. I''m looking for a way to

Hello, I was wondering how to get the Ajax.Autocompleter to behave more like Autocompleter.Local where it narrows the drop down as you type. The local autocompleter seems to exhibit this behavior naturally. Am I missing an argument somewhere? Joe _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list

Has anyone extended the Autocompleter to do multiple auto-completes in a single input field? I''m looking to achieve similar functionality to the del.icio.us <http://del.icio.us> post page which allows multiple auto-completes of tag names in the tags input field. cheers, Rob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
