Hi Boris,

Thanks for the above code snippet, this meets our requirements of not allowing user to delete the text from combo text box

Thanks,

Hi Kiran,

I am not sure if I got your requirements right but you can certainly hook to the keydown event and check if the delete key is pressed and stop the action, like this:

 keydown: function (evt, ui)
                {
     if (ui.keyCode == 46) {
         debugger;
        return false;
     }}

Hi Kiran,

I will try to think of some way to do this, thank you for the feedback.

Hi Boris,

We need functionality to search as in "editable" mode and make selections from dropdown but should not be able to select the text in combo's input box and press delete.

Please let me know a generic way to achieve this.

Thanks,

Kiran
