Add a drop down to select from on Search Widget

[jaymepeltz]

Hi I am new to flex, I have added into my search widget the code that will allow a drop down list and also into the Enhanced Search Widget. for the normal search widget I just get the hanging timeclock and with the Enhanced Search Widget  I get an error extra characterless found after the end of program but as far as i can see there doesn't seem to be anything wrong. If someone was able to have a look at the codes attached and help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jayme

Jayme,

   From initial glace the first issue is

<dropdown>African boxthorn, Prickly pear, Spear thistle, Aleppo pine</dropdown>

Should be

<dropdown>African boxthorn,Prickly pear,Spear thistle,Aleppo pine</dropdown>

Notice no spaces between commas.

I will keep digging if that is not it.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your time but still no luck

Jayme,

   You might need to run a "clean" from the project menu. I just took your code from the standard SearchWidget and got it to work. Also do you have a Photo and a Photo1 field?

Thanks Robert,

I got that to work fine on the normal search widget but I would like to incorporate this into the Enhanced Search Widget, would you be able to help me out with this?
Also I would like to keep the text search as well for a Roads layer with an auto complete function when you start tying a road name. Am i better of having another Search Widget for this or can I have this function with the dropdown list all in the same Search Widget?
As for the photo field was I was hoping to do was have a popup photo in the live widget which is working fine. In the search widget id like have a hyperlink to the photo (which is a jpeg). I have the photos located on the IIS manager as a virtual directory the problem being when you click on the hyperlink it  goes to the page http://localhost/CommunityWeeds/Photo/ which is were all the photos are stored and not to the photo itself.


Thanks for all your help.

Jayme,

   So here is the Enhanced Search Widget v1.0.7 working with the drop down. I have NOT added the auto complete capability to the eSearchWidget and probably will not any time soon (just to busy). For your photo field I am a little unclear. What is an example of the data in the Photo1 field?

Thanks for you time Robert your a Legend, don't worry about the Photo field I will work it out, if you get a chance one day when you get time to have a look at the auto complete function that would be great. If there is anyone else out there has has a auto complete function working in the search widget I would love to hear from you.

Cheers Jayme
