I have a search but I'm hiding data until search and with that option I cannot clear the search field after a search. How can I add a button to clear the search field

I might be setting up the search differently than you are but on my apps when I do a search, it automatically puts in a new button with either an "X" or a button that says "Show All" in it.

It is right after the word you typed. It only shows up after you typed in your search word(s) and hit enter.

My solution to this is to create a custom button with a "Clear search" label and the following "Client Before" code:

var currentPath = window.location.pathname;

window.location.replace(currentPath + "?a=showall");

return false;


Since the ID for my custom button is "custom_button9", I then added the following PHP code to the "Before display" event on the list page:

if( SearchClause::getSearchObject($table)->isUsedSrch() )

$pageObject->showItem("custom_button9");

else

$pageObject->hideItem("custom_button9");



This php code ensures that my "Clear search" button will only be displayed if a search has been applied.
