Hello!!!
first of all sorry for my English! :-(
Well I''m trying to make an auto_complete in my application, but
it''s
getting hard to do it. This is all what I''ve done:
1.I''m working with rails 2.1 and Postgres
2.My model name is: Alumno
3.My record name is: nombre in Alumno tables
4.I install the pluging with this command
(http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/How+to+use+text_field_with_auto_complete):
script/plugin install auto_complete
5.in my view (example.rhtml)
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=utf-8"
/>
<title>Mi boleta en la WEB</title>
<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
<%= javascript_include_tag ''prototype'' %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "scriptaculous/prototype" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "scriptaculous/scriptaculous" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag ''scriptaculous'' %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "example" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag :all, :cache => true %>
</head>
<body>
<%= text_field_with_auto_complete :alumno, :nombre, { :size => 15 },
:skip_style => true -%>
</body>
</html>
6. my model (alumno.rb)
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
:adapter => ''postgresql'',
:host => ''localhost'',
:port => "5432",
:username=> ''XXXXX'',
:password=> ''XXXXXX'',
:database=> ''boletin''
);
class Alumno < ActiveRecord::Base
end
7.my controller(completar_controller.rb)
class CompletarController < ApplicationController
auto_complete_for :alumno, :nombre, :limit => 15
def index
@alumno = Alumno.new
render :action => ''example''
end
def auto_complete_for_alumno_nombre
search = params[:alumno][:nombre]
@nombres = Alumno.find(search) unless search.blank?
render :partial => "result"
end
end
8.my partial (_result.rhtml)
<ul class="autocomplete_list">
<% for nombre in @nombres .to_a -%>
<li class="autocomplete_item"><%= nombre.nombre %>
<% end -%>
9.my CSS (complete.css)
.auto_complete {
position:absolute;
width:250px;
background-color:white;
border:1px solid #888;
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
}
.auto_complete ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
}
.auto_complete ul li.selected
{
background-color: #bbf;
}
.auto_complete ul li {
list-style-type: none;
display:block;
margin:0;
padding:2px;
height:16px;
}
That''s all I have. The problem is that, it doesn''t do
anything, I can''t
see anything in my text_field_with_auto_complete, it doesn''t show any
error, can someone help me please I really want to get it right..thank
you!! :-)

Is your Alumno controller setup as a RESTful resource? If so, then the auto complete call won''t work because the auto_complete url isn''t one of the default routes created with a RESTful resource. You could explicitly add the route but I would suggest checking out this episode of Railscasts: http://railscasts.com/episodes/102-auto-complete-association It gives a straightforward approach to creating an auto complete field with a RESTful setup.

As I''m fairly new to RoR I may not be the right one to solve your problem. But since you ask so direct here is what I did: I got inspired by (more or less copied) this example: http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk/browse_thread/thread/65f6f9011fa78b41/d45c3f04c2eacf4a?lnk=gst&q=text_field_with_auto_complete#d45c3f04c2eacf4a Especially this part about the "auto_complete" method: def auto_complete_for_person_name @people = Person.find(:all, :conditions => ["name LIKE ? AND org = ?", "#{params[:person] [:name]}%", params[:person][:org]], :order => "name ASC") unless @people.blank? render :inline => "<%= content_tag(:ul, @people.map{|person| content_tag(:li, h(person)) }) %>" else render :inline => "" end end Remember I''m using Rails ver 1.2.6 - so it may not work for your version. Good Luck!

Couple of things a) Your stylesheet is called complete.css but your stylesheet_link_tag says "example" ? b) Check your logs as you type to see if rails fires off queries depending on your input.. The autocomplete method is doing a "find" which should be firing off SQLs in ur log file. You would atleast know if that part of it is working. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
