I have a custom model which I have made. I would like to populate the combo box with fields from a database or a text file etc. I can hardcode the values but what if I have over 4000 values etc.. I also want to do a jquery look up on the textfiled as a user types. Below is an image of what currently have and how the properties popup looks like
I would like the client property to check database as i type for matching name etc.. and show them to user to select. I am very new to spring surf so if someone can please give me detail instructions on how to do this. I know how to do jquery etc but in alfresco i do not know how to achieve this.
