What is the maximum number of options

Suite and Optimus Suite 5

Hi,

What is the maximum number of options allowed in a dhtmlxcombo. I am trying to load the combo from XML during window.onLoad().
The xml is populated from the server side. xml holds more that 800+ options, the combo takes a long time to get loaded during the first time and even while filtering, most of the time response from the browser would be long running script. So would like to know what is the limitation for the options. Is there any way to improve the performance in case of more number of options in the combo.

There is no limitation in dhtmlxCombo. In such great number of options the performance of the browser decreases.
Please, try to implement the server-side filtration.
Here you can find a tutorial:
docs.dhtmlx.com/combo__filtering.html
and a working example:
