Hobo defaults to using a select-one input to display the select. You
can override that in that one place or globally:
<extend tag="select-one">
<old-select-one limit="300" merge/>
</extend>
As a rule of thumb, if I have more than 30 entries and less than a few
thousand, I prefer to use a client-side autocomplete. There's one
here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg05953.html
If there are more than a few thousand, I use a server side autocomplete,
aka name-one in Hobo.

Bryan

Hi All!
The US Postal Service has 200 different street types (ranging from Alley
to Wells). I have a table with all 200 names and official abbreviations
which has the following relationship:
model property.rb
belongs_to :street_type
model street_type.rb
has_many :properties
-----
This went well until I try to add Woodbury RD.
The drop down list for street_type goes from Alley to Lane (which
happens to be exactly the 1st through 100th entries in the table). I
can't see Streets, Roads, Places, or anything else in the 101st to 200th
entries which leaves the thing kinda useless.
There are some obvious hacks to get this to work for now (order the list
with the most commonly used types at the beginning, for one) but
eventually, someone will reach the end of the line and start yelling at
me ;-) .
Is there something I can change to allow the whole list to drop down?
Thanks,
Don Z
