This question is a follow up to this older issue: https://www.qualtrics.com/community/discussion/comment/6619#Comment_6619 As a follow up to this request, is there a way to keep the user from typing in a value in the text box if it doesn't match one of the option in the auto complete? This is the code i'm using: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { /Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads/ }); Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function() { var textOptions = [ "Michael Adams","Jon Amster","Mike Adang","Jill Anderson","Norris Armstrong" ]; jQuery('.QR-' + this.questionId).autocomplete({source:textOptions}) }); Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnUnload(function() { /Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is unloaded/ }); Works great - when the user begins typing in the text area, it pulls up any match to the letters they type. But if they just type in "foo" for instance, they are allowed to submit it. I am trying to restrict it so they have to choose an entry available in the autocomplete only. Anyways to enforce this?

@stsharp,That code wasn't my example. I don't know where it came from. My example code was:```Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { jQuery("#"+this.questionId).find('select:first').select2({options});});```Where {options} defines the select2 options you want to use. You also have to add the select2 css and javascript to your header:```<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/select2@4.0.6-rc.1/dist/css/select2.min.css" rel="stylesheet" /><script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/select2@4.0.6-rc.1/dist/js/select2.full.min.js"></script>```
