FAQ
We have some Frequently Asked Questions answered.
Q: My AutoComplete does not work
A: Make sure you have uploaded all the files and folders to your server and that JavaScript is enabled in your browser.
Make sure you've uploaded the following files in your ScriptLibrary folder:
- autocomplete.css
- jquery-latest.pack.js
- jquery.autocomplete.js
- jquery.bgiframe.min.js
- jquery.dimensions.pack.js
Also, do not forget to upload the files
that list the text autocomplete in their filenames (their names are
generated dynamically so they may differ from yours) such as:
autocomplete-pagename-xxx-1.txt
autocomplete-tpl-pagename-xxx-Countries -1.txt
autocomplete-pagename-xxx-1.asp
autocomplete-pagename-xxx-1.php
Q: Can I use a database to provide the AutoComplete information?
A: Yes, the extension will detect all the connections defined on your site and provides the opportunity to select a particular table and various fields for its auto-complete information.
Note: This feature only works for sites that use PHP or ASP VBScript.
Q: Which server-side technologies are supported?
A: The extension could be used with all server-side technologies supported by Dreamweaver. But the database interface integration can only be used with PHP or ASP VBScript.
