dhtmlxCombo

Hi. I have two questions:

first: I want to implement this functionality: I have a combo with checkboxes. Now, if I click any option, the combo will show in it this option's text and checkbox. But I want it to show my custom text (e.g. "Multiple select mode"), no matter, what option had been choosed.

second: With filtering enabled, I want my combo to show the full options list if nothing is typed in it and I click on the combo's button. Now it doesn't show anything.

Thank you.

Try to use "onChange" event handler and setComboText(str) method (please, see details in the combo documentation):

combo.attachEvent("onChange",function(){
            combo.setComboText("Multiple select mode");
            combo.DOMelem_checkbox = ""; 
})

There the DOMelem_checkbox is an internal property. You can use it to disable checkbox showing with the combo text.

>> With filtering enabled, I want my combo to show the full options list if nothing is typed in it and I click on the combo's button.

The problem was not reconstructed locally. If the combo input is empty, combo in filtering mode (not autocomplete)  always shows a full options list. Please, see sample here http://www.dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxCombo/samples/filtering/combo_filter.html

If problem persists, please, provide sample to support@dhtmlx.com
