Hi,
Yes, there is a way. It is not related to Tomcat in any way but...
what you need to use is "string".indexOf("string2")
So, take the value of the current item in the combo box and see if it
contains the string you are searching for using the indexOf() method. This
is a JavaScript issue though so I suggest if you have further problems you
try addressing comp.lang.JavaScript (available from Google).
If the indexOf() method does not find the substring it will return -1 if it
does, it will return it's index.
HTH
Andoni.
