Re: [web2py] Looking for multi-select widget that uses two text boxes

2012-09-30 Thread MichaelF
I finally got around to implementing the multi-select suggested by Anthony (
http://quasipartikel.at/multiselect_next/). It works fine, with a gotcha or 
two that might be my ignorance. Its use of div doesn't seem to play nice 
with web2py, so some layout broke from using 'regular' multi-select and the 
suggested one. I added some table 'formatting' and that fixed it. Sort of a 
'hammer' approach rather than a high-tech fix, but it works. I'm not 
skilled enough in css/html to determine what the new multi-select was doing 
with divs (and who knows; it might not even be divs), but other than that 
layout problem it works well, and has some nice config/run-time functions 
(sorting, etc.).

 That's good,  I thought you still might have some other requirement(s). 
  Anyhow,  if you implement it, please advise how it goes.  I might try 
 switch to that one if you found it easy to use.  All the best,  David
