I copy values like name, surname, email and telephone number from the addressbook into Textfields. This works perfectly. but if I click on the name it pushes to the contactdetails and I always have to click on a value. Is it possible that if I open the addressbook, that I only click on the name an, and he atomatically puts the values in to the textfields?
I just ran into this before I saw your question:

I hope it can be of some use. If not, perhaps leaving a comment there asking for clarification/help might get you some more answers. The author seems to be on the right track.
Good luck!

Right now, I'm generating unique IDs with childByAutoId(), but was wondering if there was a way to do this only generating numbers, no letters or other characters?
The reason is I need to be able to automatically send this key through imessage (part of how I send invites) and when it contains letters you're not able to automatically select and copy the key without copying the entire text message. With numbers only the key will be underlined and selectable.
Is there a way to either generate an ID with numbers only, or to selectively underline part of an iMessage with MFMessage in Swift?
Thanks!
I've need a similar option. When i create a new user; it will have a numberID which will be unique. I've tried .push() method which is for android, creates a uniqueID but with characters(letters) included. What i've done was something like this;
When i add a new user, i increment a value from different branch which is User2Key in this situation. And gave the value as key(parent) of newly added user.
When i delete or update a user, User2Key will be the same. If i add a new user then it will be incremented so every user will have uniqueID.
You can use a similar approach.
Hope this helps! Cheers!
I am a signup form which has bunch of text fields like name, phone, address 1st line, city, state etc.
Can I use googles's Place Autocomplete on this form in such a way that when I start typing address 1st line in one of the fields it suggests/auto completes and fills the city and state
1st question, is it possible, if yes are there any examples or tutorials?
There are examples out there but they use autocomplete UI, I want to be able to use my own edit text fields.
So Yes I was able to do exactly what I wanted.
I had two dependencies for this.
1. AutoComplete Text Field
2. Google's Place AutoComplete
Lets say you go to enter in a parameter and it's a string, so you go # and with a press of the return key Xcode fills the template of a string for you #"String". This is the "first option" on the popup suggestions.
Next you want to enter in a #selector for a performSelector: method, when you type in #
the default is a string so you have to go down on your keypad, that's okay.
The next time you want to enter in a string, the default is #selector now when you hit the return key after typing #
I know I am being a little bit pedantic but as the quote goes:
The three chief virtues of a programmer are: Laziness, Impatience and Hubris.
So to my question is there a way to always make the #string "default" or an even quicker shortcut other than #"?
ty.
what XCode does is , in the suggestion box,what ever you selected the last time it comes selected now.What you selected now has more chance of using it next time, so xcode suggest the same the next time. I don't think you can set something as default.
I have a textfield where the user can write a phone number but I want the user to be able to start writing a name of one of his' contacts (of the address book) and the textfield should give him an autocomplete for possible results while he's typing.The app already has permission to the address book when the user starts writing.
Here is the example of autocomplete email search. So please modify it is according to you..And i Hope it will help you.

You can do this by using a TableView (for showing autocomplete results) and NSPredicate have a look on this link for more details
When searching ABAddressBook, how do I search for contact names while excluding job titles?
I used this library in my project for autocomplete.
I have a feature I'm struggling to implement, didn't find a proper answer anywhere.
When a user puts some text in an input form and clicks a "next" button, he sees the input text as a heading of another page.
You can login to my app to see exactly what I mean: http://murmuring-headland-8091.herokuapp.com/
For example, a user writes down a decision he wants to make: "Which job to choose?", and after clicking "What are your options?" button, he sees "Which job to choose?" instead of "Step 2 of 4.".
I think what I want to implement is called "a string", but I can't go any further with that knowledge.
Hope I made my question clear. I'm a newbie, so I hope to get a detailed answer.
Here's the github of my app: https://github.com/strikhar/decisions
Thank you for taking your time and helping me!
The input field "Which job to choose?" has no name associated with it. So, you need to assign it a name for accessing the input given by user.
Once you assign it a name, say whichjob, you will be able to access its string through params[:whichjob]. Then using this, you can display this string in place of "Step 2 of 4."
Instead of using this means
What are your options? ->
use a submit field for the same. For example,
<form action='/options'>
.
.
.
.
<input type='submit' value='Submit it now and go to "What are your options?"' />
