similar to: "more..." on autocompleters

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

Not sure what I am doing wrong. Here is what i am trying to do (code to follow). I have a form to create a new book. This book can have many authors and I wanted to be able to add the authors based on if they appear in the authors table. I originally was going about it a long and arduous way where I had several forms. After thinking about it I decided to dynamically add new fields to

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

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 noticed that the latest control.js disables auto complete: this.element.setAttribute(''autocomplete'',''off''); So I removed my inline "autocomplete=''off''" from my input fields. But Firefox still auto completes. Using the Firefox DOM Inspector I do see that it''s applied by Ajax.Autocompleter as expected. The Inspector

I have two issues that I hope someone else has encountered and has a solution for. First: I have several autocompleters on my site, and they function as expected in Firefox, Opera, IE7, but when I use them in IE6, I get no javascript errors for my local autocompleters, and all ajax autocompleters functions are firing as expected and returning the correct search results. The only problem, IE6

Hi, I''m new to all this so if this is a daft question sorry. I''m using Ajax Autocomplete to populate a search box with likely matches. These results need to be filtered by an option from a select box that is alongside the search box. As the current Autocomplete function only takes in one id to post to the search file, i figured i could post more stuff to the Ajax.Autocompleter

I''m absolutely in love with the incremental autocomplete feature in the new scriptaculous. My one wish would be for some way of disabling the TAB key to prevent users from being able to tab out of an autocompleting textarea. (If they''re using TAB to select the autocomplete choice they end up tabbing straight out of the input field if autocomplete doesn''t find any

hi. i promise this will be my last question for the day. still playing with autocompleter, everything is working ok, but i''m having difficulties accessing just the href attribute of <a> element, which is a child of <li> in the autocomplete response, i.e: <div class ="autocomplete"> <ul> <li><a href

Hi Rails gals n guys I am trying to enhance the "Lightning-Fast JavaScript Autocompletion" rails recipe. For those that do not have the pdf-book the recipe explains how to use a javascript array for an auto-complete text field. I want to combine this with the in_place_editor call. My current (unworking) code: <!-- Load the array for autocomplete --> <script

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

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

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

I''ve got a search field on my site that uses an autocomplete to match against search terms already input by the same user. That''s working perfectly. However, I''d like to provide a little button next to the search field that triggers the autocomplete, so that the users can "browse" the list of past search terms. This behavior would be in addition to the

Hi list: I''m a young developer that need a little help with scriptaculous "Autocompleter". I work with PRADO framework (http://www.xisc.com) and PHP as a script language. Now this is a little function in JavaScript for make a AJAX call and show the results without reload the entire page. See below: 1 function makeRequest(url,element) { 2 var http_request = false; 3 if

When I upgraded to 1.0, I broke autocomplete on a field. I''ve done everything that I can think of to fix the problem, but nothing has worked. I''m able to recreate a simple autocomplete from examples on the various tutorials, but my original code just will not work. <input id="incident_first_party_name" name="incident[first_party_name]"

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
