Multiple enteries(with spaces) in INPUT box

varunjain — Mon, 02 Sep 2013 12:39:58 GMT

Hi,

I have a scenario where in there is an input box for CUSTOMER NAME(eg Sam johnson, Chris Mathhews).

The sam needed to be done for the account numbe which I was able to attain as thr is no space in between an ACCOUNT numbr.

Please assist how to attain this where in a user can put in multiple names (with space in between first name and the last name) and accoding to that CUSTOMERNAME attribute gets filter out.

Thanks

I guess you should better use search object.

Hi tres,

Thanks for your reply. But that wont be able to serve the purpose of selecting(input(ing)) multiple entries.

you can always do that like:

first string or second string ----- in the search box. here OR plays the role for multiple selections

to be specific you have to write the strings like:

"String One" Or "String two" .....to handle the spaces "" would be required
