Show throbber as an option
--------------------------
Key: TOMAHAWK-1125
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMAHAWK-1125
Project: MyFaces Tomahawk
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: InputSuggestAjax
Affects Versions: 1.1.7-SNAPSHOT
Reporter: Apostolos Mantes
There is no way for the user to know if the suggest function has returned an
empty list or is still working. The old inputsuggestajax UI made the difference
clear to the users via the throbber icon. If the user thinks that there are no
suggestions and in the mean time moves the focus to a differenc component (by
clicking or pressing the tab button) the list will popup but he cannot use the
arrows to navigate to the results.
Having an option to display the throbber icon would be useful in cases where a
"heavy" suggest function is implemented or there is a slow network connection.
More generally, a more "generic" approach would allow the user to define a
class style to apply to the control while the ajax function has not returned.
Maybe there is a way to override the called dojo function but my dojo skills
are not sufficient to achieve it.
