Autocomplete mixin + select event
Does the autocomplete mixin fire some kind of event, after I have selected an item from the autocomplete-menu? Because I want to update other fields, based on the value that I selected. How can I do this? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Autocomplete mixin + select event
In 5.0.11 I was unable to find a good extension point for the
autocomplete mixin. The scriptaculous Ajax.Autocompleter does support
updateElement and afterUpdateElement methods, but as far as I can tell
you can't get them into the configuration because the JSONObject
quotes its attributes (making the function into a string). If anyone
has solved that problem I'd love to hear about it.

One option would be to add a change handler to the input field that
the autocomplete is populating. Something like:
$('mytextfield').observe('change', function(theEvent) { /* update
other fields */});
Hope that helps,
Josh

Re: Autocomplete mixin + select event
I've got it working by overriding the Autocomplete mixin and putting
the following in the AfterRender (instead of using a json object).
String configS = {indicator:' + loaderId + ',frequency:.5,minChars:
+ minChars
+
,paramName:\t:input\,afterUpdateElement:onChosen};
_pageRenderSupport.addScript(
new Ajax.Autocompleter('%s', '%s', '%s',
%s);, id, menuId,
link.toURI(), configS);
Basically, in am just using a String instead of a JSON object to
write out the autocomplete parameters... so I can do the quoting as I
desire. There is a JIRA for the quoting issue already, and hopefully
when it's fixed I can go back to using the default implementation.
Hope that helps.
