Joachim,
Please see JqSHtml.autocomplete(starting: String, build: (String, Int) =>
Seq[String], onSubmit: String => Unit)
You can build a server-side autocomplete builder such as:
private def buildQuery(current: String, limit: Int): Seq[String] = {
Log.info("Checking on server side with "+current+" limit "+limit)
(1 to limit).map(n => current+""+n)
}
Your function gets the current value and the number of elements requested...
you return a sequence on String to be sent back to the browser.
Otherwise, it's just a text field and can be used in standard and ajax
forms.
Thanks,
David
