hello rubys, i got a problem with the text_field_with_auto_complete(). everthing''s working but unfortunately the items (which are for choosing) are filled into the input=text in a way that is unacceptable. the first 6 characzers are empty-spaces, than the item and at last 5 empty-spaces. doeas anybody know why? and maybe how to solve this problem? my code is following: view: <td><%= text_field_with_auto_complete(:vorgang, :bez, {:class => ''auto_complete_schmal''}, {:skip_style => true} ) %></td> controller: def auto_complete_for_vorgang_bez() search = params[:vorgang][:bez].downcase # content of the text-field search = ''%'' + search + ''%'' # format string for request conditions = [''(LOWER(bez) LIKE ?)'', search] # sql @vorgaenge = Vorgang.find(:all, :conditions => conditions, :limit => 1) # request render(:partial => ''vorgang_filter_select'') # rendering in _form_test.rhtml end please give me an hint. i''m thankful for every helping answer. bless chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

hi, I also faced the problem of appended whitespaces, I did a fix in controls.js of scriptaculous by writting this.element.value = (value.replace(/^\W+/,'''')).replace(/\W+$/,''''); you will find this around line 250..260 hope this helps regards gaurav --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
