autocomplete_htmlFormWidget extends WidgetBase
in package

Widget allowing to select a value by showing results from a search after the user starts to type a name. The search is made into a select html element filled by the datasource of the control, which should be a menulist.

See jAutocomplete jqueryui plugin, which is base on the autocomplete plugin.

If the select box may contain hundred values, prefer to use the autocompleteajax_html widget.

The widget accepts a specific attribute, 'attr-autocomplete', an array which may contain attributes for the input element used to type the search term (class, style..).

example of use:

In the form file:

    <menulist ref="mylist"> <label>test</label>
    <datasource dao="mymodule~mydao"/>
    </menulist>

In a template:

{form $form, $submitAction, $submitParam, 'html', array('plugins'=>array(
     'mylist'=>'autocomplete_html'))}

{formcontrols}
   ... {ifctrl 'mylist'}{ctrl_control '', array(
         'attr-autocomplete'=>array('style'=>'width:40em;')}
       {else}{ctrl_control}{/ifctrl}
{/formcontrols}
