Autocomplete providecompletions + extra parameter

[Leon Derks <le...@cumquat.nl>]

Hello

Is it possible to add an extra context parameter to the 
providecompletions method?

For example like this:

List<String> onProvideCompletionsFromAccountName(Long categoryId, String partial) {
	List<Product> matches = productDAO.findByPartialNameInCategory(partial, categoryId);
	...
}

How can I do this without an @Persist on my categoryId?

You can change the content that is sent for the list by extending the
Autocomplete mixin and override the generateResponseMarkup method.

http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry/corelib/mixins/Autocomplete.html#generateResponseMarkup(org.apache.tapestry.MarkupWriter,
java.util.List)

But getting at any attributes or nodes you've added to the <li> is
more difficult, assuming you wanted to update two fields with the same
autocomplete item (e.g. the id and the name).
