>- see footer for list info -< Yes, they do login already. when a user logsin, the system is fine, as he only sees his data. the problem only occurrs when an admin logs in, and the admins are supposed to everyone's data, hance the user dropdown select list.
Rich, thanks for that, i will look into that, that might help somewhat. the client is stuck in their ways, they want the full name to be displayed at all times, and it is currently like that everywhere else in the system (this is a system I didn't build, I have just have been given the task of trying to make this dog of a system run quicker and smoother while changing as little as possible :^( >It may seem obvious, but can't you just make them log in before accessing >the system? > > -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Davidson Sent: 29 June 2007 12:55 To: [email protected] Subject: [CF-Dev] AJAX >- see footer for list info -< yeah, i know it's bad, and i have tried to talk them out of it, I am just going to have to do it the best way possible, and let them live with the consequences. I also suggested exactly what you have said here, just a text box, where you can type in, and as you do, the valid users starting with the typed in chars appear. This could work for them, but would be trickey, seeing every single one of their users start with the same 4 chars (W-U-). So, I wouldn't be able to bring the list of users that match back until they had typed in at least 5 chars, and they would see this as "it's not working". don't ask me why all users start with W-U-, it's what I've inherited. Google have somethng similar (which I pointed out to them) at www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en Seems most people use an pre-selction approach. Rich, do you mean gzipping the xml before sending it back to the page, and then unzipping it as part of the return handler ? Thanks for the hints, Tom.
