Re: Struts 2 jQuery autocompleter and dynamic list
Hi Antonios, Thank you so much for your response. I was actually keep reading the wiki these days, but I am still not able to get what I expected. For sj:autocompleter, can these two attribute list and href used together?

Re: Struts 2 jQuery autocompleter and dynamic list
Hi Antonios and Dave, Thanks again for your responses. I actually downloaded the whole showcase project, and trying debugging on my local machine, trying to figure out what's the trick of it. At here, I think if the wiki pages provides more detail instructions on how to set some critical attributes, that would be a great help to users. I think I am not only one get confused. Like the variable term declared in the Autocompleter.java class. Nowhere tells users what's this guy, how to use it. Now, I finally figured out that this term is used to catch the characters user typed in. I actually tried this several months ago, and could not get it working. So, I gave it up. Now, I came back again, since I have to.

Struts 2 jQuery autocompleter and dynamic list
I am trying to implement an auto complete feature using Struts 2 jQuery plugin - sj:autocompleter. The suggestion list need to be dynamically retrieved from backend based on the characters user entered. Is it possible to implement this behaviour using S2 jQuery plugin? Does anyone has a good example? I could not find such an example in showcase. Thanks, Mike
Re: struts 2 ajax choice
Will the S2 jQuery plugin provide the similar functions as S2 dojo plugin? Is S2 jQuery plugin maintained by Struts 2 team? I am using Dojo plugin right now, and it works pretty well. Could anyone give me explanation why S2 Dojo plugin get deprecated?

The Dojo plugin was a complete client-side tag library. There's the S2 jQuery plugin [1] which would be the non-official equivalent of the old Dojo taglib.

Re: struts 2 ajax choice
Hi Dave, Thank you so much for your quick response and your explanations.

The docs and examples are available on the site I linked to. Is S2 jQuery plugin maintained by Struts 2 team? The S2 jQuery plugin I linked to is an independent project that happens to have at least one S2 team member on it. It is *not* an official plugin, but it's quite a bit more recent, and better (IMO) than the deprecated Dojo plugin. Could anyone give me explanation why S2 Dojo plugin get deprecated? Because it used a very old version of Dojo and nobody had the interest in upgrading and maintaining it. Dave
