Re: How to disable text clear when i hit "Esc" in SuggestBox

Hi David,

as you told i have used preventDefault and it working fine, can you plase let me know the below code is fine/ or is there any better way

 

final SuggestBox suggestBox = new SuggestBox(suggest) {

public void onBrowserEvent(Event event) {

super.onBrowserEvent(event);

boolean esc = false;

switch (event.getTypeInt()) {

case Event.ONKEYDOWN:

if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyCodes.KEY_ESCAPE) {

DOM.eventPreventDefault(event);

}

break;

}

}

};

That is default behavior of a text input field (set back to what it was before starting to edit).

I guess you could do a preventDefault on the ESC key event.

Hi Jens,

 

thanks for replay, what i want is when i type a text suggestbox and when I hit escape key, whatever the text I entered is clearing.

i don't want to clear the text.

I am using GWT 2.5.1 and when I hit ESC in a SuggestBox nothing happens at all. Thats what I would expect as SuggestBox does not handle ESC explicitly (see SuggestBox.addEventsToTextBox()). You can also try it yourself using: http://gwt.googleusercontent.com/samples/Showcase/Showcase.html#!CwSuggestBox

I would guess its an issue in your app and not in GWT.
