HTML5 datalist - always show unfiltered options

I would like to have a textfield input with a datalist of e.g. 10 fixed options.
Instead of the usual autocomplete behavior, I would like the dropdown to always show the complete list.
Especially, if the input has a pre-filled value, and the user clicks, I would like the dropdown to open and show the unfiltered list of options, so the user can use it like a select element.
Any idea how to do that?

How to disable data annotation required field validator in MVC

I am trying to design a page that has two radio button options and two text boxes with each radio button. I am validating these text boxes using data annotation validation attribute.
I am using jquery slider.toggle() to display each text boxes according to the radio button clicked. When i submit the page, required field validators of both text boxes are triggered. What I want to do is to disable the first text box validation when the second radio button is clicked.
Is there any method in MVC to disable the validation of text boxes when the radio button associated to it is not selected?
This can be done rather simply front end. The validation which occurs is done based on html5's data attribute. Remove the data attributes from an input element and the validation will cease to function.

Reset validation error in Silverlight text controls

I am using Silverlight + MVVM to host a form with some fields like drop down list, text boxes and date controls.
I have some validations on the textbox and date control which fire automatically when the control loses focus.
I wanted to know if there is a way to reset the validations based on the drop down list change (captured in View Model)?

How to make autocompleting textbox in VB6?

I want to have an auto-completing textbox like the one in the image below:
This screenshot is from an accounting software. Whenever the user focuses on a textbox and starts typing something, the suggestions just pop up under the control (as seen in the image under the Purc type textbox). This auto-suggest functionality even works in the cells of the grid shown in the picture. Moreover, the fields in which this auto-suggest is enabled allow only values from the auto-suggest list to be filled up and nothing else.
I want to emulate similar functionality in my app in VB6. Any ideas on how to implement auto-completing textbox in VB6?
Checkout the AutoComplete Text Box at FreeVBCode.com.
Another option is at VBNet. The article shows how to use shlwapi.dll api.
What I've typically done is do what is included in the project link by C-Pound Guru. Take a TextBox and as the user types into the field have a ListBox fill with results matching the text. The ListBox would by default be hidden but will be made visible when text is entered into the field. When the ListBox is clicked then simply update the TextBox with the ListBox's selected item text then hide the ListBox control again. A quite simple routine to complete.
VBAccelerator is an excellent site for VB6 tips - try their AutoComplete sample
