Update: With help from meti_alb on the zftalk irc channel I discovered where my problem was. Basically you have to have a data column named "name" in your json string if you want to use the dojo combobox/filtering select view helper with json data. If you have the name identifier, then it doesn't matter what you put as a value in searchAttr, it will only populate the name data regardless.
However, if you use a different method besides the view helper, you can set which data you want to display in the dropdown by using searchAttr => "id". This would display the ids in the json string instead of the names. I think this is a bug, because I remember reading a bug report about it, but I thought the status was fixed... Either way, this is the reason for my problem. -Chris -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/ComboBox-FilteringSelect-confusion-tp1476093p1477861.html Sent from the Zend Framework mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
