Hi, thanks for Marius' help ,last week, I have done the following work: (1). Implemented the function that logs a message in the firebug console whenever the caret is after [[ (2). Implement the function that requests the list of wiki pages matching some prefix user input. BUT, don't actually query the database, instead simply return a dummy list from the wiki page. (3). Implement the function that displays the list of wiki pages where the caret is, and integrated it with the SuggestionBox I have already implemented.
Here is the plan for next week: I will focus on fixing bugs and improving what I have and to make suer by the end of the week the link suggest should work very good. Include (1). Display the suggestion box in right place and at the right time. (2). Close suggestion box in custom, and also when some other keys typed like "esc" "right" and "left" (3). Test to make sure the prototype for link suggestion runs very well.
I tested your prototype and here are some of the issues I've found: * A JavaScript exception is thrown when you type if the suggest box has not been displayed at least once * The close icon is useless, remove it. * The suggestion box doesn't update its position. If you trigger the suggest box and then write a long text (try multiple lines) the suggest box doesn't move. * left/right keys should keep the suggest box open and filter the list of suggestions * Ctrl+Space doesn't work after you close the suggest box by clicking outside of it. * Trigger the suggest box, move the mouse over it then type the Tab key multiple times. The text area looses the focus but the suggest box is not closed. * The suggest box is triggered by the Delete key. * The suggest box is not closed by typing ]]. * The suggest box is not closed by deleting [[. * Ctrl+Space should be ignored if the suggest box is already displayed * You don't take into account Undo/Redo operations nor the paste event. * The suggest box should be displayed were there is space. If the caret is close to the bottom of the window and the suggest box doesn't fit below the caret then it should be displayed above. Same with left/right. For the next week I think you should: (1) retrieve real suggestions using REST (2) generate the link syntax when a suggestion is selected (3) fix some of the issues I've listed above Thanks, Marius
