Disable selection list if no results found

[marco-s]

Hi!

Is there a way to disable the selection list if the search query did not return any values? Or, if we get the string "No matches" back to make that element not "selectable"?

What I want to do is that if a search does not find any matches then I'd like to keep whatever is already entered in in the input field. Is that possible?

Thanks!!

In the onSearchComplete callback you can check if there are any suggestions found and do anything you want:

onSearchComplete: function () {
    var instance = $(this).data('autocomplete');
    if (instance.suggestions.length === 0){
        // Do something...
    }
}
