[Solved] Setting values in multiselect combobox

[Tomasz]

Hello.

I have a multiselect combobox with checkeboxes. Let assume that variable "options" has value "Dog, cat". My combobox has items "dog", "cat", "pig". I want to by using JS select and check those two values. This code check Dog and cat, but only cat is really selected.

function setValuesInCombobox(options) {
  var controler =$find(getClientIdById(cboBuildingControlName));
  controler.set_value(options);
  controler.set_text(options);
  var allChoicesFromCbo = controler.get_items()._array;
  var selectedOptions =  options.split(",");

  for(i = 0; i < selectedOptions.length; i++) {
    var building = selectedOptions[i].trim();
    for(j = 0; j < allChoicesFromCbo.length; j++) {
      var nameOfBuildingInCbo = allChoicesFromCbo[j]._properties._data.value;
      if( nameOfBuildingInCbo == building) {
        allChoicesFromCbo[j]._setChecked(true);
        allChoicesFromCbo[j].select();
      }
    }
  }
