Is there a way to keep the focus in the modal window while tabing through the elements?

The other thing about ‘e’ in ‘Hello’ is that this functionality is slightly different to say for i in range(10): . Here i is not defined yet but gets assigned iteratively each individual element thats in the range.

Having these two different conditions imo can lead to and cause confusion as well as reduce readability to a certain extent.

You’ll need to implement a callback function as one of the plugin options so that it can be called once the filter has finished. Then in that function you could count the visible rows of the table and put that information onto the page.

Hi,

I want to count the number of rows in the table using this table column filter plugin, want to display how many entries are there just like ’showing 6 entries’ want the same even after filtering. Suppose i will search for a particular key word and i get 2 matched search entries then i should display ’showing 2 entries’. Same way i want to display this just below the table.

Please help me anybody. I need this feature soon.

The reason the form submits is because the event for the return key isn’t being stopped at the suggest box so it carries on going up the event chain until it submits the form. To solve it you need to set up an event that captures the return key press for the suggest box and cancels the event chain. You could either add a keypress event in to the plugin code itself or you could place the auto suggest input box inside a containing element which has a keypress event attached to it. For example;

$(‘div’).keypress(function(e) {
return (e.which !== 13);
});

Something like that anyway!

Hi Tom,
Thank you for sharing your work!
I have a little problem: when I click the results, it works as expected, but when I press Enter in the selected item, it do a postback. Do you know how could avoid it?

Thank you very much again.

You geeks think too much about programming …

Lee Chun, write a book ..

i think Tom the issue is the .NET framework and not C#, Good thing about C# is that every year it (Mikrosoft) copies bits from everyone else. Funktional prog, Lambdas, Generics etc… but sometimes “They” (Mikrosoft) “Plagarise” too much and copy stuff and change it again, XML DataSets vs Entity Framework …. Linq2Sql vs LinqToEntities.. and stuff dosen’t work initally and then version 4 comes out and it does ….

Mikrosoft Sucks ….
