Concerning Jörn Zaefferer autocomplete. In many cases the autocomplete list is being filled with Key Value pairs, such as a list of FooBars with their name and id. Using the result function one would get the id, and drop it into a hidden field.
I want to allow users to either pick an existing FooBars from the list, or enter a new one if he cannot find a suitable one. But for that to work I need to know that the autocomplete box contains a custom item, with other words: an item that was not in the list. The result event is only triggered whenever an item was picked from the list. How would I go about implementing this. My starting point was to add code to the "blur" event of the autocomplete, yet I can't get enough information to see if the currentValue is from the list, or a custom entry. Thanks, Gidon
