Hi,
In dhtmlx.com/docs/products/kb/ … ent&q=2237 you mention that is NOT possible to filter results when obtaining them dynamically from a server side script.
While in the documentation is stated at the Filtering section, I quote:
“By default combobox uses options which already loaded in it, but it is possible to define the external script which will be called for generating list of suggestion.
z.enableFilteringMode(true,“php/complete.php”,cache);
php/complete.php - path to script
cache - true/false - enable/disable caching of script responses ( using “true” recommended )
In described situation, for each change of text in edit control the next url will be called
php/complete.php?pos=0&mask=TEXT
TEXT - current text in edit control …”
Meaning that everytime user types something, the server script will be called with different parameters.
by the way, Whats the “described situation” here?
Also, I would like to know what are the functions to obtain a behavior like the one on the sample “100,00 words”, where there is supposedly a MySQL database with a bunch of words and the combobox is being filtered/querying the DB, as the user types something.
Thanks, hope you can answer me

In dhtmlx.com/docs/products/kb/ … 2237 contains logic which tries to relay on both client and server side sorting , which is not possible, the code in this thread uses server side filtering but returns static list of data ( same as in case of client side filtering ) , solution provides in mentioned thread recommend to use client side filtering but it can be codded as server side filtering as well ( just requre some server side code modification )
