Hey
all,
When using the Ajax.autocompleter, how would I configure it so that the user is
searching based on an entry's name, but once they select an entry, I record the
ID?
I
have the user entering a person's name in a text box to make it easier to find
contacts in a large database. I know that I can display content that
doesn't end up in the textbox by using the "informal" class, but how can I
associate the contact's ID with the LI item and have that value be recorded into
a hidden field when selected?
Is there an easier way than just putting a hidden, non-standard "contactId"
attribute on my LI tags and then using the afterUpdateElement
option?
Thanks in
advance,
Joe
