Hey all,

I have been searching the forum to try and find a solution to a problem I have to no avail, so I thought I would post.

I am currently building a form, and I need a method to select an existing user on the site.

I used the following code to produce a drop-down list of users - but we have 1600 users and it became unmanageable:
//<code>
$items = "|Please Select[c]\n";
$db =& JFactory::getDBO();
$db->setQuery("SELECT name, username FROM #__users");
$result = $db->loadObjectList();
 
foreach ($result as $r)
$items .= $r->name . '|' . $r->name . "\n";
 
return $items;
// </code>

I would ideally like a select box - where the user can click the field and find a user - or a way to filter the drop down.

Is there a way I can do this?
