Hi, Im looking for a way to autocomplete a text field, I have found this, http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowToUseAdvancedAutocompleteFeatures but at the top it says "Note that there?s easier ways to do this built into newer versions of Rails, this was written in the early days of the framework. If I get a chance, maybe I?ll update." Any ideas where i can find some info on this improved version thanks scott -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
There''s some stuff on the API: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/JavaScriptMacrosHelper.html I seem to remember there''s also a good walkthrough at Amy Hoy''s website: http://www.slash7.com/articles/2005/08/13/ajaxariffic-autocomplete-with-scriptaculous and also at the scriptaculous website itself.
