AutoCompleteTextField with position: fixed
Hi,
I need to have an AutoCompleteTextField with position: fixed, because it
sits inside a fixed Modal. However, Wicket calculates the position
coordinates based on the top of the document and not the top of the screen,
so the dropdown doesn't show up in the right place when there is a
scrollbar.
To fix this, I tried to add custom JavaScript code to the
AutoCompleteBehavior, by overriding updateAjaxAttributes and adding my own
AjaxCallListener. However, this didn't work because AutoCompleteBehavior
seems to ignore any AjaxCallListener, as reported here:

Could you tell me what's the best way of achieving this?
Thank you,
Luis Pureza

Hello,
Your issue seems to be related to css and not to Wicket itself.
From the css spec for "position: fixed" :
The box's position is calculated according to the 'absolute' model, but
in addition, the box is fixed with respect to some reference. [...] the
box is fixed with respect to the viewport and does not move when scrolled.
I'm not trying to be condescending here, especially since I don't fully
understand your issue, but maybe looking up a tutorial on css
positioning might give you the answer. I'm not convinced you need any
javascript to fix this.
Regards,
Bertrand
