Re: Combo Box in CF
Varun, Yes, I would like to see what you came up with. If you want to e-mail the code to m e directly, you can send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks. --Brian Thanks for your reply. I came up with a combobox too yesterday, and its using javascript which as you said is indeed very reponsive. The was I have it set up is a text box seating on top of Select inside a DIV. Than, i got few javascript functions googling, and kinna of created a hybrid which does what I have been looking for. Its close to what you have on your page, I can send you the functions or put them here. Let me know, how would you like to have it. If you do at all. ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

Re: Combo Box in CF
Varun, I came up with something that simulates a combo box, but I don't think it quite meets what you're looking for. It gives the user a text box control and a select control. At first, the select control contains all of the options in the list, but as the user types text in the text box, the options in the select box that don't match what's being typed are essentially removed, leaving only similar entries. If the user clicks on an option in the select box, the value of that option is copied to the text box. I've posted a page with this control up on my website at http://www.swartzfager.org/combo_box_demo.cfm. You can see all of the code involved by viewing the page source. It's JavaScript-powered but does not use Ajax, so it's very responsive. Like I said, I don't think it's quite what you're looking for, but maybe the techniques/functions involved will be of some help. --Brian ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

Re: Combo Box in CF
Wouldn't really be a CF thing (unless you do an AJAX implementation, in which case it'd just be CF on the server returning the appropriate options). Also, it's been done using JS and/or AJAX.

Re: Combo Box in CF
Hi Varun: Well, the examples you found may not behave like a true combobox simply because that exact control doesn't exist in HTML. Especially if you're going to be loading 650 options :) I don't know that any of the links I could provide would be any different than anything you saw. Most were simply attempts to get as close to a true combobox as possible. Not sure about Flash or Flex...if they do have true comboboxes, and that's what you really need, that might be an option to at least consider.

Re: Combo box
There's an unencryted (modifiable) tag available on the Allaire Site (called ComboBox.cfm) that does precisely what you want to do -- using Javascript to divide the functionality between the two form elements and allowing each to influence and know (somewhat) what the other is doing. If you want to see how this tag operates I make use of it on my CoGasPrices.com site in the modify section allowing users to modify a record by selecting an existing field value OR to enter new data that will then be available for selection the next time. You can check it out at -- http://www.cogasprices.com/in_mod.cfm?stationID=407 Just in case anyone else has energy to put into this -- I do intend to modify this tag to address a couple of shortcomings (the author concedes it was done in haste) such as returning a previous initial "value" to the "other" tag when it regains focus and a couple of other things I need for it do that it presently doesn't. Should anyone else improve on this tag please do let me know so I don't reinvent the wheel -- and if there is any interest I'll be glad to advise of what modifications I make to it. If someone has already done a better job delivering this functionality (with a tag or straight code) that this tag does -- I would also sure like to hear about that.

Does anyone have some nifty code that lets me have a combo box, ie. an input type=text field combined with a collection of hardcoded choices in an input type=select? Do I just have text input field with the same name as the select box? How does this work? You're running into a HTML limit here What I do is put an "Other" option at the bottom of the Select, and have a text box for entering the Other option into Philip Arnold ASP Multimedia Limited T: +44 (0)20 8680 1133 "Websites for the real world" ** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

My bad. I just realized that the code I responded with was not complete. Here you go: A standard HTML select should do, no?

RE: combo box problem
cfset option = arraynew(1) CFLOOP From="1" To="#ListLen(temp)#" INDEX="i" cfset option[i] = #ListGetAt(temp, i)# /CFLOOP Just one question here - why aren't you using ListToArray? It's a LOT faster! tdselect name ="sselect" CFLOOP INDEX="j" LIST="John,Paul,George,Ringo" option value = #j# cfoutput#j#/cfoutput/option /select/td/tr /CFLOOP /td /tr /table You're closing the Select, Cell and Row within the loop, when they're opened outside the loop; tdselect name ="sselect" CFLOOP INDEX="j" LIST="John,Paul,George,Ringo" option value = #j# cfoutput#j#/cfoutput/option /CFLOOP /select/td/tr Philip Arnold ASP Multimedia Limited T: +44 (0)20 8680 1133 "Websites for the real world" ** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
