autocompletion.local inside rails while generating a dynamic list
Hi, I am a big noob but I would like to know how to achieve the following 2 things: 1) I need to use autocompletion.local to increase speed of retrieval since i only have items of no more than 30. However, I want the list of possible items to be dynamic ie if I should refresh the page, the javascript array of items will be regenerated. Similar to the lightning fast autocomplete eg in Rails recipes. but the @headers have been deprecated causing the eg not to work in 1.2.6 rails. Even when i switch to headers, the eg still did not work. Please advise. 2) Other than that, I need the autocompletion.local to do the following. Similar to the way google finance looks up the stock symbol. My autocomplete list search will display 2 parameters similar to google finance like: <symbol for stock 1><space><name for stock 1> <symbol for stock 2><space><name for stock 2> ... OR <property1 of itemModel 1><space><property2 of itemModel 1> <property1 of itemModel 2><space><property2 of itemModel 2> ... and I need my search to be done such that its searching through both symbols and names, basically 2 different parameters. and when i choose any item, it should only display one of the 2 parameters inside the textbox. So sorry I am asking so much. But i tried googling and I was not successful. Perhaps I am not using the right key words. Thank you all. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
