I have a page where my combo box has hundreds of elements which makes it very hard to pick the one item I want. Is there a good Javascript replacement that would do better than
<select id="field-component" name="field_component">
<option selected="selected">1</option><option>2</option>...
</select>
Is there something with "Intellisense"-like auto-complete?
You have dhtmlCombo, using ajax to retrieve data when you are filling the input field.
dhtmlxCombo is a cross-browser JavaScript combobox with autocomplete feature.
It extends basic selectbox functionality to meet the requirements of the most up-to-date web applications.
dhtmlxCombo can be converted from existing HTML SELECT or populated with JavaScript. Supporting AJAX, it can also get list values from the server datasource dynamically.
