How to make jquery autocomplete accept the pasted text.

in Using jQuery UI • 4 years ago

Hi Team,

I'd like the jquery auto complete widget to accept the pasted text apart from the selected text. The pasted text is part of the suggestions from a URL.

Please explain what you mean by "pasted text is part of the suggestions from a URL".

Can you share a demo of this?

The pasted text is not part of the auto complete suggestions.

At least show a picture. We are not mind-readers.

Generally autocomplete suggestions are populated from a URL or list and are selected the user. I also want the it accept what ever is pasted.

The value of the input is whatever what was typed-in (or pasted) if a choice was not selected.

That is assuming you are talking about jQuery UI Autocomplete, and not some other autocomplete widget.

Again, we are not mind-readers.

Make a demo (use jsFiddle) or at least show a picture.

See the demo:

https://api.jqueryui.com/autocomplete/

Type in "rub". You will see one choice, "ruby". Don't chose it.

$('#autocomplete').val() will yield "rub".

If you want something else, you need to explain it so that we can understand. We can't guess what you are thinking.
