I have a RadComboBox which is being populated by a large number of items, atleast 50K.
<telerik:radcombobox id="cbSupplier" runat="server" width="85%" enableitemcaching="true"
enableloadondemand="false" filter="Contains"
onclientkeypressing="HandleKeyPress">
</telerik:radcombobox>
<script type="text/javascript">
function HandleKeyPress(sender, e) {
if (!sender.get_dropDownVisible())
sender.showDropDown();
}
</script>
This javascript HandleKeyPress
function is searching in the combobox for input text. The problem is that the searching is very slow. It looks like when I enter a key, the browser halts for 5 to 6 seconds and then it search in the combobox.
Is there any solution to make searching a little faster in the RadComboBox
?
