Hi
In a Rails application i use text_with_autocomplete helper.
My problem is in a Compose Message page :
Imagine a textfield, where i should type my email adresses : i can
type many emails separated by colon.
- in the view : <%=text_field_with_auto_complete("message",
"to",
{:size =>90}, :skip_style => true) %>
- My controller action splits the received string that could be
''me-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org, yo'' , and does
the search on the last string ''yo''
- The partial to show the list woould be then :
<ul>
<li
id="user_1">you-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org</li>
<li
id="user_2">yoman-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org</li>
</ul>
My problem is now to append/replace in my text field the current value
before autocompletion ( ''me-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org,
yo'' ) by :
Imagine the selected value from the drop down list is
''yoman-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org''
I''d like to split the textfield value, and replace the second string
''yo'' by
''yoman-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org'', to have as a
final result in the
textfield : ''me-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org,
yoman-tn31SVb8picAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org''
I tried :before_update_element but that doesn''t work
Any help would be appreciated
