FFSelect

A Hilighting Select component with an additional filter option that allows searching keywords in ANY order. Item-contained keywords may be hilighted (like in FF)

This is a fork from the Vaadin 6.2.6 version of the Select component. The drop down menu hilights the keywords separated by space. The order of the keywords may be written in any order. Having a long list of items will simplify the fetch, as you only need to remember a few words or characters from the searched item.

This component simulates the behavior of the Firefox search-box (except counting "Most hits").

NOTE! Works with any browser that also the Vaadin's Select works on.

Sample code

Toolbox tb = new Toolbox();
tb.setOrientation(orientation);
VerticalLayout vl = new VerticalLayout(); // For instance, add your components in a VerticalLayout
tb.setAnimationTime(1); // This is practically "no animation"

mainWindow.addComponent(tb);  // Add your component to the mainWindow

Toolbox tb = new Toolbox();
tb.setOrientation(orientation);
VerticalLayout vl = new VerticalLayout(); // For instance, add your components in a VerticalLayout
tb.setAnimationTime(1); // This is practically "no animation"

mainWindow.addComponent(tb);  // Add your component to the mainWindow
