Hi Jorn,
I would very much like to see autocomplete move on, but in my current situation, I can't guarantee any effort of my own. Dan's version fixes some bugs and adds some interesting new stuff. I've got a basic set of documentation for my own initial version here: http://www.dyve.net/jquery/autocomplete.txt I've always said to consider the code free as in both beer and speech, my ego would like to see my name mentioned somewhere in the comments of a derivate work though. So:
If not, would you agree and maybe help on another derivate, this time merging the efforts and documenting them?
Yes! I love the positive response autocomplete has generated, and I really like what Dan did to it (I use Dan's version myself, I consider his to be an improvement). Of course, I hope it won't lose any functionality in the process of broadening its horizon (although I've heard people ask for json instead of the simple plain text data format I made up). Feel free to contact me by e-mail, you've got my vote to make this happen. And if I can spare the time to put in some lines of code, you've got that too :-) Dylan On 4/8/07, Jörn Zaefferer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi folks, especially Dan and Dylan, I'm in the process of evaluating jQuery's autocomplete plugins. Dan's port of Dylan's version provides most of the stuff I'm interested in, but lacks support for entering multiple items in one field. I found another mod for that purpose, again lacking some proper documentation while providing at least a download. I've also tried the Interface autocomplete, but it's behaviour is simply too far away from what I want. What I'd like to know: Are there any plans to work on those mentioned plugins, especially regarding documentation? If not, would you agree and maybe help on another derivate, this time merging the efforts and documenting them? And while we are here: Does anyone else have a request for the autocomplete plugin which could be covered now? Regards -- Jörn Zaefferer http://bassistance.de
