incomplete combobox behaviour when editable is false

[gurpal2000]

Hi

if editable is false, i expected:

1. to not be able to select/highlight text in the textbox portion
2. drop down the list when the textbox portion is clicked
3. be able to see a pointer icon when selecting things in the dropdown list

in many ways act like a html 'select/option' item.

how can the above be achieved with the easy ui one?

thanks

1. To disable selecting feature when editable is false, please overwrite the combobox keyHandler:

Code:

(function($){
	var upHandler = $.fn.combobox.defaults.keyHandler.up;
	var downHandler = $.fn.combobox.defaults.keyHandler.down;
	$.extend($.fn.combobox.defaults.keyHandler,{
		up: function(){
			var opts = $(this).combobox('options');
			if (opts.editable){upHandler.call(this)}
		},
		down: function(){
			var opts = $(this).combobox('options');
			if (opts.editable){downHandler.call(this)}
		}
	});
})(jQuery);

2. click the textbox to show the drop down panel:

Code:

$('#cc').combobox('textbox').bind('click',function(){
	$('#cc').combobox('showPanel');
});

3. change the css definition to display the cursor arrow when moving mouse over the selecting items:

Code:

<style>
	.combobox-item{
		cursor:default;
	}
</style>
