Wildcard jquery combobox is the same as the regular jquery comobo box v. 1.12 except it also provides wild card search functionality if using the wild card funciton override. Please see the html for an example of how to use this tool. Wildcard_Combobox Demo Please note that this code is a modification of the existing jquery combobox: Original Combobox

Thanks for looking, Gary Tipton

This is a modified version of the jQuery combobox tutorial:

Original jQuery Combobox.

I have added wild card search functionality to the original design.
This allows a user to search for key words or characters out of order by typing a space between query parameters.
Example typing "t a d" will show the combobox select option "Data".

This is html is only here for demo purposes. Please look at "jquery-ui-combobox-custom.js" to see wildcard code.
If you have any suggesstions or would like to contribute to this feature, contact me via git-hub profile.


I have pre populated the combobox text with the example. Just click left or right arrow key to see matching data.

Regular Combobox:
Wildcard Combobox:




//Initialize combobox normally
$( "#combobox" ).combobox();
//Initialize combobox with the wildcard function override
$( "#wildCard" ).combobox({fnOverride: "wildcard"});
