Cascading dropdowns are not autopopulated on selecting an Autocomplete value. We have to click on the cascading dropdown arrow(then only it hits controller{Spring mvc controller}).

On value change of autocomplete, cascading dropdown values are not getting changed, as the required controller is not getting hit

Hi Sanat,

I am afraid that your scenario is a bit unclear. Could you please explain what is the connection between the AutoComplete widget and the cascading DropDownLists?

I would like to remind you that the public forums are resource community and although we monitor them the reply is not guaranteed. If you have account with commercial licence ownership and need a technical assistance please open separate support tickets for the issues you experienced. We will appreciate if you also attach sample project/code snippets that demonstrates your current implementation. In this way the staff will be able to understand your specific case and provide you with answers faster.

Thank you for the understanding. Please see Support Options for more details.

Hi

We need the values in the Dropdown(more than 1) to be populated based on the value of the Autocomplete.

Code:

<c:url var="acNum" value="/Controller/acNum" />

//AutoComplete

$("#accNoMF").kendoAutoComplete({

                  dataSource : new kendo.data.DataSource({

                        transport : {

                              read : "${acNum}",

                              dataType : 'json'

                        },

                        serverFiltering : true,

                        serverPaging : false

                  }),

                  dataTextField : "Text",

                  dataValueField : "Value",

                  filter : "startswith",

                  placeholder : "Account Number..."

});

//Dropdowns to be populated on selecting a Autocomplete component

$("#bankNameMF").kendoDropDownList({

                  dataSource : new kendo.data.DataSource({

                        transport : {

                              read : "${bankName}",

                              dataType : 'json',

                              parameterMap : function(options, operation) {

                                    return {

                                          CategoryID : $("#accNoMF").val()

                                    };

                              }

                        },

                        serverFiltering : true,

                        serverPaging : false

                  }),

                  optionLabel : "Select",

                  dataTextField : "Text",

                  dataValueField : "Value",

                  cascadeFrom : "accNoMF",

                  autoBind : false

});

//Controller

//Code for AccountNumber

@RequestMapping(method = { RequestMethod.GET }, value = "/acNum")

      public @ResponseBody

List<Map<String, String>> getJSONForUser() {

            List<Map<String, String>> rdArray = new ArrayList<Map<String, String>>();

            List<String> listOfData = “”;//Data Fetched from DataBAse

            Map<String, String> function = null;

            for (String type : listOfData) {

                  function = new HashMap<String, String>();

                  function.put("Text", type);//Text and value is same in this case but will vary

                  function.put("Value", type);

                  rdArray.add(function);

            }

            return rdArray;

}

//Code for Bank Name

@RequestMapping(method = { RequestMethod.GET }, value = "/bankName")

      public @ResponseBody

      List<Map<String, String>> bankName(@RequestParam Map<String, String> Id) {

            Map<Integer, String> bankName = new HashMap<Integer, String>();

            Map<String, String> function = null;

            List<Map<String, String>> bankMap = new ArrayList<Map<String, String>>();

            for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : Id.entrySet()) {

                  try {                              

bankName = “”;//Data From DB                   

                        for (Map.Entry<Integer, String> map : bankName.entrySet()) {

                              function = new HashMap<String, String>();

                              function.put("Text", map.getValue());

                              function.put("Value", map.getKey().toString());

                              bankMap.add(function);

                        }

                  } catch (Exception e) {

                  }

            }

            return bankMap;

}

ISSUES

1>     After selecting a value from Autocomplete, the dropdowns are not populated.

The Controller is called only after clicking on the dropdown.

2>     If we change the value of the Autocomplete, The controller is not called again(we have to fetch corr data From DB based on value)

Note: The code is implemented in a PopUp

Please see the attached ScreenShots.
