Upgrade to support .on() ? #15

Open cviebrock opened 12 years ago

I'm using your plugin to build some autocomplete fields in a form. I'm also using the Appendo plugin to dynamically add rows to my form. However, an autocomplete field, when duplicated, doesn't keep the autocomplete functionality. I'd need to manually re-apply the quickselect() method.

I think this can be fixed using the .live() -- and now .on() -- binders in jQuery. Any thought of an update?

Thanks!

Can't you just add a callback on the appendo call to call .quickselect() on the new element? You can also pass params including the auto-selection data to into the quickselect function.

Daniel is no longer alive... but I worked with him a bit including that he developed quickselect for my use as well as his so we went back and forth on this project quite a bit.

I have written a similar script that I generally use myself now that may work better for you if you have issues with quickselect then checkout jselect: https://github.com/joshaven/jselect (If you need a feature added to JSelect then I would be much more likely to work on this project). quickselect was built on other code that I found complicated to manage so I did a re-write from scratch to accomplish the same thing and included testing to keep things from breaking.

I can leave this open but I don't have any plans at this point to add functionality to quickselect.
