Thanks, but before I go into my reply, I wanted to say that I'd posted
hours earlier and it did not show up. I got the "your post was
successful" message, but it's simply not here. Have you had this
happen?
I will try your suggestion. I'm not sure exactly where to put it, but
I'll experiment. Or it may just be better to insert it on the server
side of things.
One other thing: If the user does not actually select an item from
the list and, instead, just tabs out of the field - perhaps because
the item that was put into the textbox via the quick-fill was the one
he wanted - then the code to populate other fields does not fire. How
can I get that code to fire? (The code below does not fire)
<pre>
function findValue(li) {
if( li == null ) return alert("No match!");
if( !!li.extra ) var sValue = li.extra[0];
else var sValue = li.selectValue;
oItmDesc = document.getElementById("ItmDesc");
oItmDesc.innerHTML = li.extra[0];
oOnHandQty = document.getElementById("OnHandQty");
oOnHandQty.innerHTML = li.extra[1]
oPrice = document.getElementById("Price");
oPrice.innerHTML = li.extra[2]
}
</pre>
