hello one and all, this is not web2py directly, but you'all have great advice.
say i have 10,000 customers/clients and i don't want to dump them into a select/option input and force the end user to sift through all of those to pick the right client. i would rather have a child popup window with say 3 search inputs to allow the end user to enter 1 to 3 values into those search inputs and have a query button which goes out to the web2py controller and pulls only those clients based on the combination of the 1 to 3 search inputs. the popup shows that subquery list of clients in a nice much shorter table. the user can then click on the link/button next to the one client they want to choose and pass that result back to the parent window to store it in a input variable for when they finally finish the form and hit submit. i would like to do it with the native web2py/jQuery libraries we currently use in web2py v2.12 or v2.13 for maintenance and simplicity. so what is the best and most simple method to do this? thanx in advance, lucas -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
