Announcing RecordSelect 0.9
Posted by Lance Ivy Thu, 16 Aug 2007 20:04:00 GMT
I finally stopped being lazy and announced RecordSelect, a Rails plugin I developed to provide better usability and performance than a dropdown for picking a record from a list. This forced me to clean up the docs and prettify the demo. Here’s the announcement:
Have you ever needed to ask the user to pick one of a list of records? Ever struggled with the usability and performance of generating a humongous dropdown list?RecordSelect is my answer. It provides a paginated, searchable, and RESTful way to browse a list of records and select the right one. It even allows keyboard navigation, because I thought that sounded pretty cool.

Feedback is appreciated! Even if it’s a friendly “yo, something else already does this … better.”
