implementing search in jstree

[assafwo]

hello,
we implemented search using jstree. it works only in case the f12 is open. you may see this in action:
http://www.mdn.co.il/learning5/?SubjectId=895
you may run this link a few times.
sometimes it opens correctly, sometimes it stops half way, sometimes is only opens the root and nothing else.
please help us.

Sorry, I cannot view the link ... at all - I get a 404 error. Anyway - the search plugin will be reenabled soon (in branch v.1.0)
Please say when the page is up again.

Kindest regards,
Ivan

Hi again, I see what you mean by search, but I do not get the idea behind it - sorry - please explain further. Why aren't you using the native jstree search?

the native jstree search searches for a string in the existing tree.
we need to search an integer - subject id.
and the subtree might not be on the local browser yet.

my next question is:
i am retrieving from my server a json array representing the path to a
subject that i would like to expand. how would you go about it?*

Hi, the search method can work with the server (async). Anyway - I would return the array of IDs to expand ... and then expand them one by one (loading from the server as needed) - btw - this is exactly what the search plugin does - see the code for examples.
