I have EO.Web 2009 and am considering an upgrade. I'm very interested in the comboxbox control, but have a question about it.
In testing your demo, I see that you say in the Selection example that we can enter text directly, and yet when I try this in the Server Side demo, it doesn't seem to return the selectedIndex for the entry that I typed.
Also, is there a way to make the control do a client-side select-as-you-type, much like the combobox in MS Access.
Thanks.

Hi,
The server side demo should automatically return SelectedIndex if a matching list item is found. If no matching list item is found, then SelectedIndex is -1 and you can get the entered text through the ComboBox's Text property.
Currently the ComboBox does not do client side select as you type.
Thanks!

Thanks for your quick response, but I don't see that behavior. In your Server Side Interface demo, when I type 'Item 5' it returns the following:
--- Selected Item Index: -1, ComboBox Text:
Confused?

Hi, Which browser do you use? We verified with IE 9 on the following link with the following steps and it works fine: http://demo.essentialobjects.com/Demos/ComboBox/Features/Server%20Side%20Interface/Demo.aspx1. Type in "Item 5"; 2. Type tab key; The page posts back with Selected Item Index = 4, ComboBox Text: Item 5. Thanks

I was hitting the ENTER key, not TAB key.
