Auto-Complete Results Template

The auto-complete results panel is built using a preset HTML template that is built into the product. CSS classes are attached to allow for custom styling. For complete control over the output, a custom HTML template can be assigned using the "results template" property. This property accepts an HTML fragment that will be inserted into the results panel for each returned record. In the tempalte HTML, a field name within parenthesis will be replaced with the actual field data when the results HTML is generated.

For example, to make each record display as a block with 2 lines that display one field each, the "results template" property could be set to the following: 

Code Block
languagexml
<div class="my-class">
  <div class="my-lineclass1">(MYFIELD1)</div>
  <div class="my-lineclass2">(MYFIELD2)</div>
</div>

The CSS classes assigned can then be used to control styling such as borders, etc.
