Query Widget OR eSearch Widget - Typeahead

[RodWoodfordOld]

Hi ESRI and Robert,

Is it possible to use type ahead or predictive text functions in the value text entry box. We are receiving a lot of support request calls from staff having issues getting the street addressing correct, mainly because they don't get type ahead or predictive assistance when entering the address. An example is 1-10/50 Smith Street. If staff don't get this correct a blank result appears. If type ahead or predictive text was available it would resolve this issue as they would see the address options . I've tried dropdown boxes, but trying to return 80,000 records is way to slow.

Any advice would be very useful. Robert a screen shot of your Add expression Value display is below.

cheers

Rod,

   Look at this similar thread for my answer:

Address Search Auto Populate

Thanks Robert, I did briefly look at this auto populate process, it's a bit messy and complex but I will give it another ago. Thanks anyway. Hopefully ESRI can come to the party on this one. Typeahead functions for searching should be a standard process like they were in the flex apps.

cheers

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your efforts. Keep up the good work. Hopefully this issue will get some momentum soon.
