Use AJAX Auto-complete Extender *without* A Webservice?
Apr 23, 2009
Using ASP.NET 3.5 with VB codebehind.
I don't want to use a webservice to populate an autocomplete extender on a textbox. In this case, it's where the user is entering email addresses and I don't want to make a trip to the database every single time. I'd much rather keep a collection in session state and 'bind' the autocomplete to that.
Is it possible to set ServicePath and/or ServiceMethod to something in the codebehind as opposed to a webservice?

I'm trying to use an ajax auto complete extender, but it's not working. I put a break point on the GetCompanyNames method in the web service, but it doesn't even hit the break point.
Here is my ajax autoextender
<asp:TextBox TabIndex="1" ToolTip="* Required - enter the Company name" ID="txtCompanyName"
runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<ajaxToolkit:AutoCompleteExtender runat="server" ID="acCompanyName" TargetControlID="txtCompanyName" ServiceMethod="GetCompanyNames" ServicePath="~/WebServices/AutoComplete.asmx" MinimumPrefixLength="1"
EnableCaching="true">

I'm trying to use an auto-complete, and it works fine if I call a function without a parameter in the web service:
<WebMethod()> _
<Script.Services.ScriptMethod()> _
Public Function GetCompanyNames2() As String()

I'm trying to tie the AJAX autocomplete control to a textbox and pull the results from an sql database using VB. Anyone know how to do this? I found plenty of examples in c but I need to do it in VB. Here's code for C I guess but I can't figure out how to convert it to VB.

Im sure this is a very simple and easy to answer question but I've been looking at this too long and being new to ASP I cant seem to find a solution that works.
I have an ASP calendar extender, I click it and the calendar displays as expected, the selected date appears in the textbox, but when the page then posts back I cant get the selected date value from either the textbox.text or the calendarextender.selecteddate properties, I tested this by trying to assign these values to a string variable in the page_load event.

I basically need to do this, but unfortunately my hosting provider doesn't give me "Full Trust" so I can't run threads. Is there a way to do this using AJAX?
//Updates Information in Database
Thread threadFind = new Thread(LoadFind);
threadFind.Start();
Response.Write("Send old information to users"); I don't want my users to have to wait at all for a response, so I can send them the old information. However, while they are on the page I want another thread (or something that works like a thread) to update the information for the next user that visits.

The VB.Net desktop app uses the IE browser control to navigate the web. When a normal page loads the document_complete event fires and I can read the resulting page and go from there. The issue I am having is that the page I am driving is written with AJAX, so the document complete event never fires. Furthermore, when you view the source of the page after it loaded a new portion via AJAX, it hasn't change.

So I was reading a bit on AutoComplete of textboxes in VB.NET, but I can't really understand where these are stored? Is it a fully built in feature, or do I have to write some code for it to work? I've found the AutoCompleteMode and AutoCompleteSource properties of textboxes.But I want to append whatever I've written in the textbox to the autocomplete source. Do I connect the source to My.Settings or something

Im currently diving into jquery autocomplete for the first time. To start off with, I had a .net handler calling out to a mssql db and pulling last names. That worked great.However when I try to add additional values it simply doesnt work. The code being used in the handler is as follows.
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim prefixText As String = context.Request.QueryString("term")
Dim conn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection

I didnt include the IsReusable when posting, but that is there. why it doesnt like multiple values but will display one lone value?
** Edit ** I just looked in Firebug and it is getting a response but just not displaying it. My implementation of this is pretty simple so far, nothing to fancy.
$(function() {
$('#lastName').autocomplete

I have a ComboBox in my WinForm which has data from SQL server (used LINQ to bring up the data). I'd like to have an option just like AutoComplete in VB.NET but not only by the first letter but for a search LIKE.

What is the best approximation algorithm to implement full-text fuzzy search. For example we have a dropdownlist with the following data (from SQL datasource):
Company Policy
Product Catelog
Our Partners
Now I want to replace it with an autocomplete textbox, such that when the letter "p" is typed the list shows all three results. It should start matching the first letter of the first word or second word and so on. Also, it should highlight or make the matched letters bold in the suggestions dropdown.Is there a readymade control for ASP.NET (with JS or jQuery) to deliver all the aforementioned functionality? Otherwise if I have to implement it, is there a tutorial/blog which point me in the right direction?

I'm having troubles with my datagridview. Id like to use a combobox that you could type into and (as you are typing) would update the drop down list with the ability to use wildcardsThe list is populated with a table in my database. I know how to do this using just a combobox on a form, but I'm still learning everything with datagridviews.Is there a way to do this with a combobox in datagridview? If not, is there a way to do it any other way (i.e. using a textbox and having something pop up like the autocomplete windows)? I really would like to have the ability to use wildcards with this

I would like a fulltext autocomplete functionality for a Combobox. Built-in autocomplete only filters those items, that match the written text from the first letter. Is there any 3rd party components that has fulltext autocomplete? Or do I need to make functions myself?

I'm using the AutoComplete function of a TextBox to suggest values from a database to the user. This works almost as expected. However, I do have two questions that I can't seem to find the answer to...
1) Is it possible to change the function that selects the items to display in the AutoComplete dropdown such that it will also select strings that match anywhere else than at the beginning? For example, when I type 'apple' I want that to match 'Apple' but also 'I have an apple!'.
2) Is it possible to change that same function to sort the options? (In my case based on how often they exist in the database.)

I implemented auto complete in vb.net textbox , but there is an issue that when user types something in text box the auto complete suggestion list blinks and disappears like if the focus changed
here is the code:
Dim Bl As New ItemBL
Dim suggestions = DAL.DisplayLikeNameList(Trim(MyTextBox.Text))
Dim MySource As New AutoCompleteStringCollection()
[code]....
I believe the problem in Mdi form because it has timer code executed after the above code :
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
LblDateAndTime.Text = Now
End Sub
Note: the auto complete code is executed in a child form not in the Mdi Form , what do you suggest to keep suggestions list "sticky" as the user writing in the text box ?
