Hi, two week ago I had a similar problem (see Thread "AutoCompleteTextfield---how to populate two input fields - tf4592192.html#a13166291")
The solution was to have an autocomplete-list attached to the zipcode and the city-field. The list shows the valid zipcode-city combinations for the zipcode/city entered so far. When the user chooses an entry from the list, both fields are filled accordingly. To achieve this the AutoCompleteTextField's behavior was modified so that it is able to update two fields at once from the user's selection (with different values). In that way, entering the data occurs in the browser only, the model remains untouched until the user submits the form. (Indeed, a slightly different approach, but works great). regards, Oliver Matej Knopp-2 wrote: > > I think what you could try (though it would be a nasty hack :) ) is to > set rawInput property on FormComponent.
