Also, this widget is missing the "DISABLED" and "READONLY" attributes. Or has it been intentionally left out to bring in a new implementation that I am not aware of?

Since I am loading the option values dynamically, I want to disable the select box when the value "None" is iterated as the only choice. They can still type invalid values (e.g. "No"), and this shouldn't be allowed.

Hi,

When it`s submited a form with widget dijit.form.FilteringSelect, are sending two parameters with the same value and distinct name.
the name one is good and other is empty.

the output server after submit is :

28-sep-2007 12:54:46 org.apache.tomcat.util.http.Parameters processParameters
WARNING: Parameters: Invalid chunk ignored.

the url generated after submit is:
http://localhost:8080/app/frameset?=All&codigo=All&__format=html&__repor...

WARNING!
(=All&Codigo=All)

i think that the problem is in generated code of FilteringSelect:

how can i avoid this behaviour?

thanks!

i try to use the great feature dojo/method, but i cannot make it work in conjuntion with FilteringSelect. Is this feature not supported for FilteringSelect or do i make a mistake?

this code fragment is placed within the <_select> tag!

<_script type="dojo/method" event="onChange">
alert('change');
<_/script>
(I use the _, otherwise the script tag wont appear ...)

In comparison dojo.connect works fine!
dojo.addOnLoad(function() {
dojo.connect(dijit.byId('liniennr'), 'onChange', 'test');
});

greetings

This code snippet can be used to alert the user that the text they entered is invalid. It then replaces their invalid entry with the previous value.

_{PS - I'm a newbie - comments, improvements welcome. Code was edited for the post, may have syntax errors.}

A Filtering select doesn't drop in Opera. Internet Explorer and Mozilla don't have such problems. I thought it was a bug in my application, but in the examples from the site there is also such a problem.

When execute the method setDisabled in FilteringSelect widget, this one disappears. If i click in dissapeared widget gap the widget appears disabled. This behaviour is like the widget wasn´t painted in my firefox. In IE works fine. Dojo toolkit 0.9.0, any Idea?

Hi,

This page is broken, it can't be viewed with IE7. It throws an "Operation aborted" error. The problem is that the Javascript is adding elements to the DOM before it is completely parsed. To fix it move this lines:

dojo.parser.parse(dojo.byId("code1"));
dojo.parser.parse(dojo.byId("code2"));

to an onLoad event:

dojo.addOnLoad( function() {
	dojo.parser.parse(dojo.byId("code1"));
	dojo.parser.parse(dojo.byId("code2"));
});

Some other pages in the Book of Dojo are also broken in the same way.

Is it possible, to use a kind of dynamic datastore?
I want to have a FilteringSelect widget, that every time it is used by the user connects to url and also submit other form field values. The server than can use the values to generate adapted response. Then the FilteringSelect widget must to be refreshed.
Is there a way?

Just a note, QueryReadStore will not work with a FilteringSelect, after each character you type it will re-fetch from the server and essentially reset your Select when you leave the field. This is also true if you Select an item from the field. I guess this is the "expected" behavior with this data store:

http://trac.dojotoolkit.org/ticket/6071

Per Manel Clos' comment above, the only way that I know of to re-fetch your data from the server is to create a new store and assign it to the widget. Trac 6073 asks if we can enhance ItemFileReadStore to be able to re-fetch from the server instead of using the cached data.

Hi,

Consultation, how disables text input, for use as an element COMBOBOX common?
Are understand?
The idea is that the user does not enter into the combobox.

Thanks!

In my html code, i have included a filtering select with de next option.

<select dojoType="dijit.form.FilteringSelect" size="10" id="combo">
<option value='6'>75-></option>
</select>

This option is rendered like "75-&gt"; and not like "75->"

If i use html without dojo, it´s rendered ok

<select  size="10" id="combo">
<option value='6'>75-></option>
</select>

any idea ?
what´s the problem ?

Hi, i have a problem with the filtering selection:
i need to match records that contain the text i put into select input.
i found in ComboBox.js at line 52 this description:

<code>
// queryExpr: String
// dojo.data query expression pattern.
// `${0}` will be substituted for the user text.
// `*` is used for wildcards.
// `${0}*` means "starts with", `*${0}*` means "contains", `${0}` means "is"
queryExpr: "${0}*",
</code>
i substituted default queryexpr with "*${0}*" as suggested before .
When the page runs i get the following error:
*$ invalid quantifier;

//		`${0}*` means "starts with", `*${0}*` means "contains", `${0}` means "is"
		queryExpr: '${0}*',

i substituted default queryexpr with "*${0}*" as suggested before.
When the page runs i get the following error:
'*$' invalid quantifier at dojo.js line 1028

i tried with the other regular expr suggested ('${0}*' and '${0}') and in this way everything works fine.

the problem seems to be the chars *$

any suggestion??

thanks

Hi, i have a problem with the filtering selection:

 
When I use dojo.js of "version Dojo 1.0.2" for FilteringSelect, I can type Chinese characters without error. However, I change the source
to dojo.js of "version of Dojo 1.1.0." I get an error with "this.keypress is not a function". All these conditions happen in Firefox only. How can I do ?

I have a filteringselect that uses a ItmReadFileStore. When the dropdown is clicked, the page shakes and the container of the list in the dropdown is displaced. do anyone know why this is happening?? it makes the page look ugly

Hi,

I have retrieve value via dwr and I am not sure how to load into the FilteringSelect field. The folllowing is my code:

Based on the code above, it will only populate to the normal text type but not the filteringSelect type. Please help!

Thanks & Regards,
Kay Nny

How do you get the filter select to display a given value. The setDisplayedValue and setValue options do not work. Setting a value on a select object should not be this confusing what am I missing?

Thanks

I noticed something strange in filtering select, present in version 1.1 (cdn deploy) and also in 1.1.1.
If this is the states.txt file

{identifier:"abbreviation",

items: [

	{name:"Alabama", abbreviation:"AL", mytest: {name:"DONTSHOWME",abbreviation:"fi",uno:1,due:2}},

	{name:"Alaska", label:"Alaska",abbreviation:"AK"},

	{name:"American Samoa", label:"American Samoa",abbreviation:"AS"}

]}

I can see an element of the filteringselect showing the DONTSHOWME element.
this is a very crazy behaviours, can you explain it?
there is a patch for this?

Hi,

is there an attribute I can use with this widget, to build a multiple choice combobox? Else, what is the recommended way of doing this with Dojo?

Thanks!

I'm using dojo which is intergrated in zendFramework.
About the " FilteringSelect ", all the code are copied from here only changed the dojo path:

But the firebug list the error:

http://localhost/externals/dojo/dijit/form/nls/en/validate.js 404

Well , there is no nls/en/validate.js in dojo.
But this example runs well firefox.

I am trying to read in a list of entries for the drop down from a text file. The text file has some entries that do have accents and they are not coming in properly.

so the Text file says:{identifier:"abbreviation",
items: [
{name:"FullExtent", label:"Please select a city",abbreviation:"FE"},
{name:"Calgary", label:"Calgary",abbreviation:"CA"},
{name:"Edmonton", label:"Edmonton",abbreviation:"ED"},
{name:"Fredericton", label:"Fredericton",abbreviation:"FD"},
{name:"Halifax", label:"Halifax",abbreviation:"HA"},
{name:"Kelowna", label:"Kelowna",abbreviation:"KE"},
{name:"London", label:"London",abbreviation:"LO"},
{name:"Montr&#233al", label:"Montréal",abbreviation:"MO"},
{name:"Ottawa", label:"Ottawa",abbreviation:"OT"},
{name:"Québec", label:"Québec",abbreviation:"QC"},

Note: I have tried just using a Accent as in Quebec and I have tried using the HTML code as well as in Montreal.

The out put of this is in the drop down box is:
Montr&#233al (it also shows the ; but on the post it reads this correctly and displays as accent)
and
Qu?c

Any ideas how to get it to successfully read the accents??
