Callbacks?

[pouipouidesign]

Me again :)

Did I miss a part of the doc talking about how to invoke callbacks (ie. when someone has selected something in the dropdown)?
I'd like to do stuff in my page depending on which item was clicked but I can't for the life of me figure how to tie in to the instance?

I instanced my input like this:

autoCompleteInput = new Autocomplete('tileFilterText', {
            srcType: "array",
            useNativeInterface: false,
            srcData: acTilesFilters
        });

I then tried something like:

$('.aLim').on('click',function() {
    alert('');
});

Then something like:

$(window).on(autoCompleteInput.selectValue,function() {
   alert('');
});

but neither worked?

Thanks !

Try something like:

autoCompleteInput = new Autocomplete('tileFilterText', {
    srcType: "array",
    useNativeInterface: false,
    srcData: acTilesFilters, 
    onInput : function(newValue, oldValue) {
        // your code here
    }
});

I'd seen "onInput" but isn't it used for when the person is typing in the field?
I was looking for "when the person has autocompleted" (be it by tabbing or clicking)…?

Anyway, thanks for the quick anwser!

I tried fixing this issue by adding this.checkValue(event); to line 429, inside AutocompleteProto.selectValue function just before return stopEvent(event);
can you please guide me if this is correct way to resolve this issue.

Now I can use onInput : function(newValue, oldValue) {} and it gets triggered when user does selection from list
