Ok so I got the text field to populate a list of what I needed but I
have a problem. When I select an item in Firefox, there''s 4 spaces that
appear before it in the text field. In safari, nothing appears in the
field after selecting. I saw reference to this problem while searching
online but couldnt quite find a solution. My code is almost exactly
whats in the scriptaculous example at
http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/autocompleter_customized
here it is:
#controller
def auto_complete_for_software_title
auto_complete_responder_for_software params[:software][:title]
end
private
def auto_complete_responder_for_software(value)
@soft = Software.find(:all,
:conditions => [ ''LOWER(title) LIKE ?'',
value.downcase + ''%'' ],
:order => ''title ASC'',
:limit => 40)
render :partial => ''software_list''
#view
<%= text_field_with_auto_complete :software, :title, {}, :skip_style =>
true %>
#partial
<ul>
<% for soft in @soft do -%>
<li>
<%=h soft.title %>
</li>
<% end -%>
</ul>
I tried alot of different things but nothing seems to be fixing it. Any
help would be greatly appreciated. I''m almost there :)

One thing i noticed is when I look at the html, the textbox looks like this <input id="software_title" type="text" size="30" name="software[title]" autocomplete="off"/> the autocomplete attribute is set to off, not sure if that has any significance to this though. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Ok I just figured it out if anyone else has this problem. Apparently you
need to have the partial all on one line with no spaces between
elements.
Old partial:
<ul>
<% for soft in @soft do -%>
<li>
<%=h soft.title %>
</li>
<% end -%>
</ul>
New partial:
<ul><% for soft in @soft do -%><li><%=h soft.title
%></li><% end
-%></ul>
Now it works properly. :)

The spaces between LIs themselves and the ones between UL and LIs are ignored for certain. -- fxn --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
