I have this TreeView and I want to filter its items and display the item whose name is entered in the input above this TreeView. I want the searched item to be displayed in a different format (background – color = yellow ) and all the items in the TreeView to be expanded. If the item is not found, all the menu items should be collapsed and a notification message should be displayed indicating that the desired item is not found.

$('#searchInput').on('keyup', function() { var searchText = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); $('#tree2 li').each(function() { var name = $(this).text().toLowerCase(); if (name.indexOf(searchText) !== -1) { $(this).addClass('intro'); tree2.openAll(); }

This is the function that I am using, but no item appears in the TreeView even if the searched item’s name matches an item in the TreeView. Also, several errors occur in the TreeView and the function enters a continuous loop of opening and closing the TreeView. Additionally, the function applies the yellow color to all items in the TreeView. Please review the errors in the function and correct them. I would be grateful for your assistance

I checked your code (not thoroughly) and some obvious issues came to my sight at first.

Problem:

The tree.openAll function is generic and currently responsible for opening up all the nodes in the tree and not just the ancestors of the searched value.

As you are calling the openAll function inside the keyup event (when the searched string matches with any of the node texts), it will trigger the generic tree.openAll function where it will not just try to open the ancestors of the searched node but all the nodes (this is happening through the click function). This is the reason you are seeing the tree opening and closing multiple times (infinite loop as you say).

Solution:

The approach you can take to fix the above problem:
1. Get all the ancestors of the searched node and trigger click from
  top to bottom. You can also add the background-color one by one
  (to show it more intuitive) as they keep on opening up (Maybe, some
  fadeIn or other animation that goes with your UX design).
2. To trigger the click from top to bottom, I suggest you create
  another function that just takes the searched node as an argument
  and inside that function, create a logic to find all the ancestors
  and trigger the click using your already created click function.
I hope this somehow helps you. I see you have the same issue with the closeAll as well. For closing everything, this would work but for closing a few or some of the nodes, this is not the right function.
