alexey plotnikov created RF-13306: ------------------------------------- Summary: Autocomplete: ignored API call .setValue('') Key: RF-13306 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-13306 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 4.3.4 Reporter: alexey plotnikov All described here https://community.jboss.org/thread/233973 I have this autocomplete component: {code} <table> <tr> <td> <rich:autocomplete mode="ajax" autocompleteMethod="#{autocomplete.autocompleteProviders}" minChars="0" var="s" fetchValue="#{s.realName}" id="provider-suggestion" autofill="false" onselectitem="autocompleteChangeProvider(event.target)" style="display: inline;" layout="table" value="#{autocomplete.providerName}" > <a4j:queue requestDelay="500" ignoreDupResponses="true" /> <h:column> <h:outputText style="display:none;" value="#{s.id}"/> <h:outputText style="display:none;" value="#{s.realName}"/> </h:column> <h:column> <h:outputText value="#{s.name}" escape="false"/> </h:column> </rich:autocomplete> </td> <td> <h:graphicImage value="/img/arrow.png" onclick="#{rich:component('provider-suggestion')}.setValue('');#{rich:component('provider-suggestion')}.showPopup();stopEvent(event);" alt=""/> <h:graphicImage value="/img/cancel.png" onclick="#{rich:component('provider-suggestion')}.hidePopup();#{rich:component('provider-suggestion')}.setValue('');autocompleteChangeProvider(null);" alt="#{messages['pages.clear']}" title="#{messages['pages.clear']}"/> <h:inputHidden id="filter-provider-id" value="#{autocomplete.providerId}"/> </td> </tr> </table> {code} as you can see, i don't use showButton="true", because i need another functionality, i need erase input text before show popup window. I use JavaScript function "autocompleteChangeProvider" for extract selected id. I use separate button(/img/cancel.png) for erase input text, as you can see this function just use Richfaces API. And a problem: if autocomplete.providerName not null and not empty(in rich:autocomplete) and user clicks on show button(/img/arrow.png) than input text not erasing, but i called #{rich:component('provider-suggestion')}.setValue('') !!! I think i found a solution AutocompleteBase.js has this code: {code} rf.ui.AutocompleteBase = function(componentId, selectId, fieldId, options) { // call constructor of parent class $super.constructor.call(this, componentId); this.selectId = selectId; this.fieldId = fieldId; this.options = $.extend({}, defaultOptions, options); this.namespace = this.namespace || "." + rf.Event.createNamespace(this.name, this.selectId); this.currentValue = ""; this.tempValue = this.getValue(); this.isChanged = this.tempValue.length != 0; bindEventHandlers.call(this); }; {code} as you can see this.currentValue = "" so JS thinks that this.currentValue="" so currentValue equal new value("" - empty string), so nothing happens. i replace this code by this: {code} rf.ui.AutocompleteBase = function(componentId, selectId, fieldId, options) { // call constructor of parent class $super.constructor.call(this, componentId); this.selectId = selectId; this.fieldId = fieldId; this.options = $.extend({}, defaultOptions, options); this.namespace = this.namespace || "." + rf.Event.createNamespace(this.name, this.selectId); this.currentValue = $(rf.getDomElement(fieldId)).val(); this.tempValue = this.getValue(); this.isChanged = this.tempValue.length != 0; bindEventHandlers.call(this); }; {code} and it works! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
