CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

if i understand your point (type part of a name in and have a list appear below box) seems to work for me so long as i use letters that corresponds to some names in the contacts database. E.g 'a' works but 'j' doesn't

Eileen - in 2.2 and prior we did only loaded dojo widget (ajax) features like the auto-complete quick search on civicrm pages (i.e. where civicrm/ is in the url). The user page is not "part of CiviCRM" in that sense - so you get a plain text field.

For 2.3 - we are migrating all ajax widgets to jQuery. At this stage it looks like the tentative approach is to keep ajax widgets active in CiviCRM blocks even when not in a Civi page. I think this is better - more consistent - so hopefully we won't find any library conflicts or other reasons not to. :-)

Not sure which one(s) kurund has been looking out / trying. Feel free to ping him about it (or we can all discuss and try and tweak real-time while you're here :-) ).
