Hi Gerald
As suggested i wrote the code below for autoComplete to display suggested
items based on user input. For example if user keys in "A" or "B" into the
textbox, then suggested items starting with either A or B only should be
displayed.
public List autocomplete(String suggest) {
String pref = suggest;
ArrayList result = new ArrayList();
Iterator iterator = getAssetList().iterator(); // getAssetList()
retrives Asset List from database
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
AssetMgmtSystem elem = (AssetMgmtSystem) iterator.next();
if ((elem != null &&
elem.getName().toLowerCase().indexOf(pref.toLowerCase()) == 0) ||
"".equals(pref))
{
result.add(elem);
}
}
return result;
}
It still displays incorrectly suggested items. Any pointers/suggestions will
be highly appreciated
