Hey all,
I''m using a very straight forward implementation of Autocompleter. My
constructor looks like the following:
document.observe(''dom:loaded'', function() {
new Ajax.Autocompleter(''search_query'',
''search_results'', ''at.php'', {
method: ''get'',
paramName: ''typing''
});
})
Works great, makes a GET request to the server, and I can see my
responses coming back in Firebug. I can also inspect the DOM and see
the result sets there which is a bunch of styled <div> elements.
However, with that said, my ''search_results'' div gets
display:none;
appended to it inline via the Autocompleter class. Once the results
are in, it never shows the display.
Is there a reason for this? Why is it not setting it to display:block
once the results have finished their round trip?
Thanks,
/sf

I''ve noticed the same thing and was about to ask about it, so I don''t think it''s an isolated problem.

I posted too soon, and I''ll answer my own question here. The formatting that the Autocompleter class is looking for is very specific here. I was returning a result set wrapped in <div></div> elements, which scriptaculous is not found of. It is currently only working if you wrap your result set in an unordered list to display it.
