Detailed Description

Text field for selecting a value from a large list of possible values, with auto-completion and optionally with a select dropdown for selecting common options.

HTMLComboboxField implements most of the same functionality and should be used instead, if possible.

If one of 'options-messages', 'options', or 'options-message' is provided and non-empty, the select dropdown will be shown. An 'other' key will be appended using message 'htmlform-selectorother-other' if not already present.

Besides the parameters recognized by HTMLTextField, the following are recognized: options-messages - As for HTMLSelectField options - As for HTMLSelectField options-message - As for HTMLSelectField autocomplete-data - Associative array mapping display text to values. autocomplete-data-messages - Like autocomplete, but keys are message names. require-match - Boolean, if true the value must be in the options or the autocomplete. other-message - Message to use instead of htmlform-selectorother-other for the 'other' message. other - Raw text to use for the 'other' message

The old name of autocomplete-data[-messages] was autocomplete[-messages] which is still recognized but deprecated since MediaWiki 1.29 since it conflicts with how autocomplete is used in HTMLTextField.
