The following code shows how to use the search method to locate a city name using four values entered in the textbox of the wijcombobox:
<script id="scriptInit" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
var proxy = new wijhttpproxy({
url: "http://ws.geonames.org/searchJSON",
dataType: "jsonp",
data: {
featureClass: "P",
style: "full",
maxRows: 12
},
key: 'geonames'
});
var myReader = new wijarrayreader([{
name: 'label',
mapping: function (item) {
return item.name + (item.adminName1 ? ", " + item.adminName1 : "") + ", " + item.countryName
}
}, {
name: 'value',
mapping: 'name'
}, {
name: 'selected',
defaultValue: false
}]);
var datasource = new wijdatasource({
reader: myReader,
proxy: proxy
});
$("#tags").wijcombobox({
data: datasource,
showTrigger: false,
search: function (e, obj) {
obj.datasrc.proxy.options.data.name_startsWith = obj.term.value;
},
select: function (e, item) {
$('#output').html('I come from ' + item.label + '!');
}
});
});
</script>
