[dhtmlxCombo]filtering by "contains" instead of "starts with

Suite and Optimus Suite 5
#1

Hello,

Is it possible to filter by “string contains” instead of “string starts with” in the dhtmlxCombo??
I mean, if I have this list:

Car
Hello
Mellow
Camcorder

Typing “ello” will select “Hello” and “Mellow”.
Typing “c” will select “Car” and “Camcorder”.

Is that possible? Thanks in advance!

Hello,

you can modify th dhtmlxcombo.js library as follows:
locate

try{ var filter=new RegExp("^"+text,"i"); }

and replace it with

try{ var filter=new RegExp(text,"i"); }

Thank you very much. I’ve already fixed it, and also make some more changes to allow autocomplete and enter activation.

If anyone is interested i can post the modified .js
