Autocomplete with IWP?

[sargon]

Is the autocomplete text box function unavailable in IWP?

I have a shared db with an autocompleting (repeating) Field A. The purpose is that the different users (via web) need not type in again data already available. It's not working via IWP.

I have also tried making a value list based on values entered in this Field A. In this case users loged in were not able to add new data to Field A (only to select one of those already available in the list), even if they had full right to access and modify value lists.

Does anyone know why this did not work?

"Does anyone know why this did not work?"

Because auto-complete is a FileMaker feature, and not something that's built into html.

Is also a valuelist with values based on a field specific to FM? Why can I type no new records via IWP if I make my Field A a dropdown box based on values in Field A?

Is there any other solution to get this function working?
