How to pass addtional parameters to AutoCompleteExtender's ServiceMethod.I am trying to create common web service method for all the autocomplete textboxes in my web apps.
I want to pass the source table name,the key to be retrived, and any filtring criteria to the web method.
Hi. I have two chained CascadingDropDowns. Both are working fine. The thing is that in the underlying web methods which are supplying values for DropDwonList I need read one additional parameter. This parameter is needed for setting up the default item for dropdownlist.
I do not know how to pass that parameter or read it. I've read on the Internet about the ContextKey property. But I do not know how to acces it from the WebMethod.
I've tried to get to the session through HttpContext.Current.Session (hoping that I could extract some parameter from the session) but it seams that the Session is different for the WebPage and WebMethod.
In the tutorial for autocomplete text box for static page method in c# the following lines of code is given. When i use it my website using c# it gives error 'invalid term "in" showing in line 7.
[System.Web.Services.WebMethodAttribute(), System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethodAttribute()] public static string[] GetCompletionList(string prefixText, int count, string contextKey) { // Create array of movies string[] movies = {"Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Superman", "Memento", "Shrek", "Shrek II"}; // Return matching movies return (from m in movies where m.StartsWith(prefixText,StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase) select m).Take(count).ToArray(); }
I am using autocompleteextender to receive list of projects. Is there any way that, given list of projects can hold a hidden values like a dropdownlist? I need project ID as hidden value...so that when I select a project from the list, I can retrieve the ID using C#/ASP.Net.
i'm using visual web developer 2008 express edition, i added the ajax toolkit to the tools without issue. SOME tools, like the accordian (and others) allow me to drag and drop them onto my forms. but others, such as the autocompleteextender wil not allow me to drag and drop them onto a form. i just get a circle with a line through it (as if to say - this is not allowed) - why is that?
i tried coding the extender in manually like many examples i've seen online:
I've got an AutoCompleteExtender on one of my pages, it seems to be working fine aside from this strange behaviour: Let's say I key in 2 characters, the suggestion list would display. When I press on backspace to delete those 2 characters, wait until the suggestion list to disappear, and re-enter those 2 characters, the suggestion list would no longer display (or sometimes would flicker for about a second after losing focus from the textbox) and I'll need to refresh the page just to get it working again.
However, if I do press backspace and delete those 2 characters but not let the suggestion list to disappear and re-enter new characters, it would continue displaying with correct suggestions. This behaviour seems to happen only in IE8, (although it works with IE8 using Compatibility View and Firefox)... My code is almost the same as the sample on this site except for the animations, and the service looks up in a database table.
I have implemented autocompleteextender on textbox, everything works fine, however please help me with this minor thing.In textbox whenever I enter a value it get stored in memory
e.g I have typed 'hello' & press enter. The next time I press 'h', 'hello' appears below it, & hides the autocompleteextender. Is there a way to switch this function of text box

I am using AjaxAutoCompleteExtender in my asp.net program (C#) . I am applying the extender to a texbox and using internal Web Service. I am getting the desired result, when i am running from the development environment. After Publishing the site to IIS, I am not getting the list and not showing any errors. I have turned off custom errors. My website is not an Ajax Enabled WebSite. So i added the lines into my Web.Config.I tried all service path.. http://localhost/Test/ WebService.asmxhttp://192.109.1.8/Test/WebService.asmxand i tried ~/Test/WebService.aspxWhile testing from the development environment, i am using the last one.I am not sure whether this is the problem with the service path or any permission issue.
I have an AutoCompleteExtender control as below. I have tested the web service and it is working. When I debug, there is no error message of any kind. But when I type in the TextBox1, the auto completion does not work. Does somebody know what could be the cause?
I am using ASP.NET 3.5...I have a text box where I am using the AutoCompleteExtender for search.
When user enter the key the serach shows the "ProjectNumber-ProjectName" in the search result....after selecting any of this...only ProjectNumber is entered in the textbox (I am using hidden control to store key values)...everything works fine till here.Now I have a problem with values stored in the hidden control...for example in the text box there are three ProjectNumbers ..A,B,C....now I go ahead and delete all these three and enter the key word again...the search work fine but when I select any value the Text box is populated with old value (coming from hidden control) like A,B,C and then new value D
Please suggest me how I can assign the hidden text box value with the new text box values after the selection is done...
function KeySelected(source, eventArgs) {
var labelVal = document.getElementById('<%=this.Hidden1.ClientID%>').value; var userValues = ""; [code]...
How can I use the contextKey of an AutoCompleteExtender ? When I had a search, I got to know that using javascript we can fire the contextkey to the webservice writing this script and how to use it in webservice ????
use a textbox and the AutoCompleteExtender to search for the customer. For example, on the PurchaseOrder form, I have a textbox with a Customer field, and when I type in the name of the customer, the AutoCompleteExtender shows the possible matches.Now, it takes a few seconds to show the list of values, even with setting the correct values on the extender, and if the user types in the name of the company, e.g. Contoso, and leaves the textbox, there might be 2 Contoso's in the database. The AutoCompleteExtender does not continue when the user leaves the textbox, thus the CustomerId is not determined yet.
I'm using Visual Studio 2008, .NET 3.5, on a Vista 64 bit machine. I have a simple application that has 2 textboxes that are both setup with an AutoCompleteExtender. They both work as expected with the following exception only in IE7. The top textbox has the focus by default, I set this in a pageLoad javascript function.
[Code]....
I enter in some text in the top textbox and after 2 characters (MinimumPrefixLength="2") I get the list from my webservice and I've coded it so that once an item from the list is selected it uses the OnClientItemSelected="eventHandlerPnum"to call the javascript function 'eventHandlerPnum' which sets the document.location to a url with the item as a query parameter. This works fine the first time. If I use the back button when I start entering text into the top textbox I get the browser cached entries in a dropdown after the first character and the list from my webservice doesn't show up after the second character.
I've tried this in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari and they all behave correctly, ie they always display the web service list after the second character.
I have quite a problem with a form that contains an autocomplete function. The page is an aspx page with c# codebehind.
On the form there is an address field that the user can type in any string address. This field is using an Ajax autocomplete extender, which roadnames to the user. This works fine. Furthermore the user has the option to add multiple address fields when clicking a button. This works fine now with Jquery. Jquery copies the table which contains, besides other fields, the address field, and "paste" it underneath the existing adress field.
Problem is, how do I attach the Ajax autocomplete extender to the address fields that gets added? Or is there another workaround to make all these fields have this autocomplete function?
When using AutoComplete in google chrome, it seems to have a problem positioning the extender. It seems that the "top" css value of the autoextender isn't being calculated with the scroll position taken into account.
This can even be seen on:
[URL]
If you scroll down so that the "AutoComplete Demonstration" title is at the top of the browser rendering area, and then type something in the textbox, you will notice that the extender will display at the top of the page instead of just below the textbox.
