I didn’t get the input field for jqxcombobox to filter the items in combobox

[NarendraParticipant]

Hi frnds,

i am retrieving data from SQL Server,

Here is my code:

var source = {
localdata: zipdata, //my own data
datatype: “json”,
};
async: false
var dataAdapter = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(source);
// Create a jqxComboBox
$(“#lstchktypes”).jqxComboBox({
source: dataAdapter,
width: 150,
height: 25,
displayMember: “Zipcode”,//my own data
valueMember: “Zipcode”,//my own data
theme: ‘summer’,
checkboxes: true,
});

If I execute above code I am getting the combobox with items, But when i click on the input field of combobox, It doesn’t allow me to type the text in it, to filter the items… Please provide me solution….

Thanks in Advance….

Hello narendra.pvnb,

This is due to the property checkboxes being set to true. When checkboxes are enabled, the input field of the combobox is disabled and items can only be checked.

Then is there any alternate way to get the input field for combo box when checkboxes property set to true.?

Hi narendra.pvnb,

You cannot write in the input, but you can get its value. Here is how:

                var val = $("#jqxcombobox").jqxComboBox('val');

No, not for getting value, I want the functionality for filtering the jqxcombobox with input field in the case when i have many no.of items in the combobox.

Or is there anyway for putting input field externally to jqxcombobox, if i typed text in the textfield then it will dropdown the list of jqxcombobox

Thanks in advance

Hi narendra.pvnb,

This can be achieved by having a combobox with checkboxes: false. Unfortunately, there is no other way.
