Hello everyone. Has anyone been able to figure out how to use the autocomplete component from adobe as a search box against data in a DB?? We only seem to be able to use it with existing pre defined data sets.
What we would like to do is use it as a real time filtering search box. Example. USe starts typing in say a last name. After they type 3-4 characters a lookup event is fired off and the dropdown for the autocomplete appears showing potential record matches. The records are in a db accessed via XML and java. We were able to do this with HTML and JS using some ajax techniques and would really like to do it in flex. Any ideas??
