k, it's basically done. if the list is longer than the browser's height, scrolling with both the keyboard and the mouse either feels kinda awkward (because the entire page gets scrolled with .scrollIntoView) or even impossible. what we could do now is the following: put the list in another div with style "overflow:scroll; height: XYpx;" this way scrollIntoView does not affect the entire page.
now if anyone can think of better names than "allowEmptyInput" or "showListOnEmptyInput" i will happily use the better suggestions ;) Gerolf On Wed, Apr 23, 2008 at 4:26 PM, Gerolf Seitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > nah, i think this should be pretty straight forward. > let me take a look. > > Gabriel, can you file a jira issue for that? thanks. > > Gerolf > > > On Wed, Apr 23, 2008 at 4:14 PM, Johan Compagner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > I guess this is being done because when nothing is typed there is > > normally > > no list? > > > > Gerolf do you see any problem making this configurable so that it does > > show > > always a list if there are values? > > > > johan > > > > > > On Wed, Apr 23, 2008 at 2:53 PM, Gabriel Erzse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > I am using the autocomplete feature of Wicket, and I would like the > > user > > > to see the entire list of available values when the input field is > > empty. > > > Then, as he starts typing values in the input field, the list of > > values will > > > narrow down. > > > > > > However I see that when the input field is empty, the popup for > > > autocomplete is not displayed (for example when I press down arrow).
