ajax lazy suggestion box
Hi Team, I am looking for a dropdown list that narrows down based on what is typed and Loads the values from the database as the user types. Something like the dropdown in visural wicket http://wicket.visural.net/examples/app/dropdownbut doesnt preload all the values. My other option is the create a Lookup value dialog box but i would like to avoid this . Any suggestion is welcome. Regards. Josh

It's called a auto-complete: http://wicketstuff.org/wicket14/ajax/autocomplete On Mon, Oct 11, 2010 at 4:19 AM, Josh Kamau joshnet2...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Team, I am looking for a dropdown list that narrows down based on what is typed and Loads the values from the database as the user types.

Re: ajax lazy suggestion box
I have looked at the autocomplete box that you have suggested. The issue i have with it is that if i type some text that appears in the middle , it wont be looked up. If for example am looking for United Arabs Emirates, i cant look up by typing Arabs. I have to start by typing United. get my point?

Re: ajax lazy suggestion box
The lookup functionality is provided by you. You can do whatever you want with the input. Look at the example and implementation of the getChoices() method. It would be trivial to change it to do a contains rather than startsWith search.
