Hi,
if i got you correctly the same works to me on:
http://www.irian.at/myfaces-sandbox/inputSuggestAjax.jsf
I step into the first suggest-input, highlight a value from the list
and once it is highlighted i can tab out to the next input. If it
works on this page, is must also work on any select-menu page combined
with suggestAjax components. Or do i got something wrong?
To the second issue; You are choosing one value from the list, a few
moments after typing in. So why you want to avoid such a behaviour?
Thats not really an issue; You can only restrict the length of the pop-up-list..
cheers,
Gerald

Hello,
In my application I'm using the inputSuggestAjax-component from Tomahawk.
There are two minor inconvienances with this component, which I would like
to address.
I'm not sure whether to report them here or to the DoJo-toolkit, but since
I'm coding using the tomahawk-component, I will start here.
On some form I have several h:selectOneMenu components aligned underneath
each other. Most of my selectboxes have just a few options, but one has
about 1700 and for that one I'm using the inputSuggestAjax-component. That
component is about half way through the list of selectboxes.
As a user I can use TAB to switch from 1 input to another and use the up-
and down-arrow for selecting the proper option. This stops when I reach the
inputSuggestAjax-component, because after I made my selection with the keys
the focus does not get set to the next input-field in the form. I have got
to use the mousepointer to give focus to the next form element.
The selected issue is about layout.
If I open the options for the inputSuggestAjax-component all options get
rendered in a layer on top of the selectboxes which are located underneath
it in the form. That's how I expect it should be have. Once I made a
selection, entered some other field and then want to change the selection of
the inputSuggestAjax-component, I will click on the text-field.
Using the backspace I remove the last part of the text until the component
starts to suggest all alternatives, which start with the text still
remaining in the input-text-field. Those alternatives will rendered in the
background compared to the 'normal' selectboxes also present in the form.
This makes is quite hard to read the values of the options and thus select
the proper one.
IE 6.0 is the target-browser.
Does anybody recognise this behaviour and know how to get around these
issues?
With kind regards,
Marco Beelen
