hello – i have many situations where i use both a dropdown-select and new user input. somebody can either select from a value in the dropdown or enter a new value in a text field. then the next time they visit the page, whatever value they entered into the text field will be part of the drop-down.
i notice the combo-box is using a user text-area but its not ID’ed. i might be able to extract the value using the jqx-combobox-input class but i dont feel comfortable trying this, without some forum guidance.
is there any way somebody can type into this field and have whatever they typed available through jQuery?
or is there a better jqwidget option for somehow combining a dropdown selector with user input?
thank you all very much.
