xPages Editable Combobox

Is there a way to create an xPage combo-box which will allow the user to create an entry like “allow values not in list” does for a Notes client app? The field displays the choices nicely. I want the user to be able to enter a new item if it is not already available on the drop down list.

Thanks in advance!!

Subject: You can use an edit box and use code to tie it to the combobox

I haven’t done this in an xPage, per se, but using traditional web development methods, you can add an input field (edit box) to the field and then use Javascript to append the value to the combo box values.

That’s a great idea. Thanks!!
