I am using the WinJS.UI.AutoSuggestBox from the first example on this link: http://try.buildwinjs.com/#searchbox:simplelist1
I copied the exact same code to make sure I was not making any mistakes on my part, but it still doesn't render correctly. I have no idea what the problem might be.
PS: the Data.animeList is a namespace defined on the default.js, it works correctly and I've been using it on other pages. It is an array of strings, just like the one on the example mentioned above. Using the array provided on the example resulted on the same thing.
Here is the image showing what the problem is (well, it's not rendering, so you won't be able to see anything): https://i.stack.imgur.com/E3tgd.png
And here is the code:
// For an introduction to the Page Control template, see the following documentation:
// http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=232511
(function () {
"use strict";
WinJS.UI.Pages.define("/pages/home/home.html", {
// This function is called whenever a user navigates to this page. It
// populates the page elements with the app's data.
ready: function (element, options) {
// TODO: Initialize the page here.
WinJS.UI.processAll().then(function () {
// Renders the anime list view.
//var animeListView = document.getElementById("animeList");
//animeListView.winControl.header = Renderer._animeListHeaderTemplate;
//animeListView.winControl.itemDataSource = Data.animeListData.dataSource;
//animeListView.winControl.itemTemplate = Renderer._animeListTemplate;
//animeListView.winControl.layout = new WinJS.UI.GridLayout();
});
},
unload: function () {
// TODO: Respond to navigations away from this page.
},
updateLayout: function (element) {
/// <param name="element" domElement="true" />
// TODO: Respond to changes in layout.
},
});
var suggestionList = Data.animeList;
function suggestionsRequestedHandler(eventObject) {
var queryText = eventObject.detail.queryText,
query = queryText.toLowerCase(),
suggestionCollection = eventObject.detail.searchSuggestionCollection;
if (queryText.length > 0) {
for (var i = 0, len = suggestionList.length; i < len; i++) {
if (suggestionList[i].substr(0, query.length).toLowerCase() === query) {
suggestionCollection.appendQuerySuggestion(suggestionList[i]);
}
}
}
};
function querySubmittedHandler(eventObject) {
var queryText = eventObject.detail.queryText;
WinJS.log && WinJS.log(queryText, "sample", "status");
};
WinJS.Namespace.define("Sample", {
suggestionsRequestedHandler: WinJS.UI.eventHandler(suggestionsRequestedHandler),
querySubmittedHandler: WinJS.UI.eventHandler(querySubmittedHandler)
});
})();
