Topic: multiselect dropdown
i am loading a form via jquery ajax dynamically in which your multiselect dropdown is loaded along the form.the problem is that the searchTextbox becomes disabled and is not working when i click on it.also if i 1000 entries in the dropdown the save button is at the last .that means i have to scroll all away to down to click on it so that my dropdown is closed.this is frustating.Also since it is button it posts the form which i do not want .I replaced the button with span but it is showing outside the dropdown ,this is annoying .I had to write the separate script to change this behavior by using event.preventDefault() function of jquery .So many bugs,your library is annoying , now tell me how to fix these bugs ,its eating my time rather than saving
Hello there,
Regarding the disabled search text input, the bug report has been submitted and fixing it shall be scheduled. The thing stands similarly with save buttons in case of big amount of options, although it's worth to mention that the select saves options picked whenever it is closed. As far as button form submission is concerned, when a button is the lonely button in a <form> element, it assumes type="submit" attribute, which is behavior is browser-specific and can easily be altered. Please let me know if I missed an issue and please don't hesitate with feedback.
For future reference, please make sure that code snippets are complete. It greatly prolongs debug time and eventual resolve when, for this example, necessary libraries are not imported, the modal has no toggling mechanism and JavaScript code never initiates the select. Thanks.
With Best Regards,
Kuba

can your dropdown load list of items dynamically on scroll ,paging machanism?Jakub Strebeyko staff commented 6 years ago
Do you meanmaterial select or dropdown? If by "scroll paging" you mean scrolling down, then the answer is yes, but in case of material select be sure to destroy before and re-initialize the select after data load. Also, please create a thread for each separate concern, so they all can be properly addressed. Thanks.
Hi there labtasks,
Welcome to the support board! First of, thanks for your input, we might just use it push MDB forward. Sorry to hear about your frustration, through - let's deal with its sources. As many issues at once are tackled here, I suggest sharing the code here (or codepen.io, or jsfiddle.net) so we can figure out what exactly got goofed, one thing at a time.
With Best Regards,
Kuba
