Hi,
Is there a control, or a way to integrate one, that can be a drop-down, but allow a person to type in a value in that view to be saved?
Something similar to this – http://jqueryui.com/autocomplete/#combobox – but that the value can be saved.
Thanks – Greg
Hi,
And/or another way I was just thinking that I could solve my problem, is there a way that I could open a custom window/pane that let the user either choose the value from a dropdown and/or enter their own value?
Thanks – Greg
You can use autocomplete control, that allow entering value and suggest options like dropdown while you type.
Refer demos/integration/autocomplete.php
Any ideas on how to show all potential values for autocomplete? Maybe some Javascript which uses onFocus to show all the values?
OK, I managed to hack autocomplete so it works like a Combobox:
$col[“editoptions”][“onfocus”] = “$( ‘#office’ ).autocomplete( { search: ”, minLength: 0 } );”;
This will display all potential values of autocomplete when the field contains no next.

Thanks for the update.
