Type ahead dropdown boxDoes anyone know of a good dropdown WebForm control that works like the
Windows Forms dropdown control with type ahead feature, Where user can type in a value and it automatically displays the like values in the listbox, or user can click on the down arrow to bring a list of all items? I have found controls but they either do no let you type in the box or there is no down-arrow to click to display all of the items in the listbox, just like the Windows Forms dropdown box or you have to buy a huge library. I just need the single control. Thanks Peter Hi Peter,
Do you mean a customized DropDownList which can select item by typing in it (when it has focus)? Maybe you can check out following control: http://www.dotnetjohn.com/articles.aspx?articleid=215 Hope this helps. Please feel free to post here if anything is unclear.

What do you think of the ComboBox Control recommended by Steve? It's written in .NET 1.1. Regards, Walter Wang (waw***@online.microsoft.com, remove 'online.')

For instance when you stop typing in the text box the cursor goes to the beginning of the text, when you use the back space the type ahead does not work and it does not work in FireFox although it's not a concern for me right now. I hate to complain because this control is free and it has the source code so I can change what ever I want, but I just don't have time to do that. |
