    <p>I am using PrimeFaces and I need auto filter functionality in the drop down control.</p> <p>My requirement is that as I start typing, the drop down list should be filtered to show only the items that match with the entered characters.</p> <p>I am currently using AutoComplete control and as you can see in the image below, it does NOT do the filtering, but only highlights the entered characters in bold. Is there any property of this control that will help me do this out of the box or do I have to implement it myself? If so, how to do the same?</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/nsQV5.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>Here is the code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;p:autoComplete id="state" label="state" completeMethod="#{patientBean.listStates}" required="true" dropdown="true" forceSelection="TRUE"/&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>Or, is there any other control that will help me achieve this out of the box?</strong></p> <p>By the way, I am not sure if the following property of AutoComplete control is relevant to this by any chance? Snippet from the PrimeFaces documentation given below:</p> <pre><code>autocomplete null String Controls browser autocomplete behavior. </code></pre> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong> I am using: JSF 2.1.6 PrimeFaces 4.0</p> <p><strong>Code</strong> test.xhtml </p> <pre><code>&lt;html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui"&gt; &lt;h:head&gt; &lt;title&gt;&lt;ui:insert name="title"&gt;Test&lt;/ui:insert&gt;&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/h:head&gt; &lt;h:body&gt; &lt;h:form id="createPatientForm"&gt; &lt;h:panelGrid columns="2"&gt; &lt;p:outputLabel value="State*"&gt;&lt;/p:outputLabel&gt; &lt;p:autoComplete id="state" label="State" completeMethod="#{stateBean.listStates}" required="true" dropdown="true" forceSelection="TRUE"/&gt; &lt;/h:panelGrid&gt; &lt;/h:form&gt; &lt;/h:body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>StateBean.java</strong></p> <pre><code>import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean; @ManagedBean public class StateBean { private String state; public String getState() { return state; } public void setState(String state) { this.state = state; } public List&lt;String&gt; listStates(String district) { List&lt;String&gt; cities = new ArrayList&lt;String&gt;(); cities.add("California"); cities.add("New Jersey"); cities.add("Texas"); return cities; } } </code></pre>

    1. CO`"My requirement is that as I start typing, the drop down list should be filtered"` Isn't that the behavior of the autocomplete already? Also, what version of PF/jsf/etc are you using? I get the feeling that what you want is to limit the input of the user to a specific set.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
