Hello everybody. I''m wondering if there is away with scriptaculous to update multiple form fields with data after finishing an autocomplete request. Heres an example. Joe BlowSchmoe fills in his name and starts to type in the customer number, he selects the approprate customer number from autocomplete list, and bam the address associated with the customer number is populated into the approrate fields. Thanks _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list Rails-spinoffs-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-spinoffs
Yes, The easiest way is to execute another function onUpdate that populates the data, by executing another AJAX call That is, Do the autocomplete, and on update execute an ajax call to find the address data and populate the appropriate form fields.

Being the slow nitwit that I am, would you mind doing a quick example of the
last part?
<input type="text" id="custnum" name="_custnum"
tabindex="1" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="custnum"
value="-1">
<div id="updatecustnum"
class="autocomplete"></div>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
new
Ajax.Autocompleter(''custnum'',''updatecustnum'',''cnQuery.php'',
{paramName: "q",minChars: 1, afterUpdateElement: updateHidden });
</script>
Thats my autocomplete code, that works :D. Would I put the AJAX call after
the afterUpdateElement?

Anything can be done with prototype/scriptaculous, but it may involve programming some of your own stuff on top of it. However, in this case, are you just asking whether prototype has ajax functionality? If so, then yes, it does. Look in the documentation for Ajax.Request http://www.sergiopereira.com/articles/prototype.js.html#UsingAjaxRequest (that doc is for version 1.4, but Ajax.Request hasn''t changed since then, AFAIK).

No what you said was perfect, and the stuff from the others helped with the
other piece. I do have one other question, if this is a php form and I
include a script with functions, how would I call the functions rather then
a php page and pass params with the autocomplete?
new
Ajax.Autocompleter(''rep'',''updaterep'',''acQuery.php'',
{paramName:
"q",minChars: 1, afterUpdateElement: updateHidden });
new
Ajax.Autocompleter(''rep'',''updaterep'',''<?=acQuery()?>'',
{paramName:
"q",minChars: 1, afterUpdateElement: updateHidden });

If I have understood you correctly, using prototype (and not other
frameworks) this is the solution:
- You define tasks for your php file
query.php?task=listItems&search=adam
query.php?task=autocomplete&id=3
at the top of your php put a switch:
switch( $task ) {
case ''listItems'':
myFuncListItems($search);
break;
case ''autocomplete'':
myFuncAutocomplete($id);
break;
}
this way you can call the same php for different (ajax) tasks.
Hope it helps you.

Not sure you have this the right way around. I would call the php page and that calls the functions. You will need to set evalscripts to true.

One thing to keep in mind, if you have the form data auto filled in when the user types in the customer number you are exposing the entire customer database.... you dont want to inadvertently be compromising your customers data. Better option would be to do the ajax call after both customer number and PASSWORD have been provided. Just my 2 bits. :-) ______________________________________________________________________ Alex Duffield . Principal .

Yes actually this form I am creating is inside a users account, he only has access to his address book, his customer numbers and so on and so forth.
