In order to create an AJAX suggest text field, use the AJAX Suggest Text Field Wizard. You need a text field in page. If there is no text field before launching the wizard, one will be generated for you.
The AJAX Suggest Text Field Wizard is accessible from the MX AJAX Toolbox tab of the Insert bar (or MX AJAX Toolbox menu item from the Insert menu):
Note: The wizard generates a recordset and a server behavior, AJAX Suggest Text Field. So you can also create an AJAX suggest text field by creating a recordset and then applying this server behavior from the Application panel, Server Behaviors -> + -> MX AJAX Toolbox.
The AJAX Suggest Text Field Wizard has one step. Configure it as shown below:
Select the database connection to use for retrieving data.
Select the database table that stores the text suggestions.
Select the table column whose values will be used as text suggestions.
Select the text field in page that you are transforming into a suggest text field. If you leave the None option, a text field will be automatically generated.
Specify the maximum number of suggestions offered.
The buttons in the lower part of the interface offer the next functionalities:
Click OK to apply the wizard, when you are done configuring it.
Click Cancel to exit without the new settings to be applied.
The Help button brings you to this help page.
