AJAX Names Lookup on Lotus Notes

I've written a sample AJAX name lookup selection from names.nsf. It uses prototype.js for the AJAX request. Instead of using pop-up dialog, the example uses subModal. You can download the example here.

This is a fantastic design. Have you had any reason to need a multi-name select box?

@Elijah. Some situation you may need to select multiple names. For example if you want to send out email to a group of people or certain workflow that needs a few people attention, etc.

William, thank you for sharing this code.

I notice that at the end you call a function on the main form to assign the name to the Names field.

How would you apply it to a form that has several names fields? Thank you.

very beautiful! but there are so many design elements to implement it. I think it needs some kind of concentration...
