Rails - Feb 2011 - auto_complete vs select_tag

hi,


i have 2 models and 1 join_table:

film.rb

has_many :joins, :dependent => :destroy
has_many :people, :through => :joins

person.rb

has_many :joins, :dependent => :destroy
has_many :films, :through => :joins

join.rb

belongs_to: film
belongs_to: person

in views/films/ _form.rhtml

<%- f.fields_for :joins do |builder| %>
    <%= render "films/join_fields", :f => builder %>
<%- end %>


in the partial join_fields.rhtml :

<p class="fields">

  <%= f.select :person_id, options_for_select(Person.all(:order=>
''name
asc'').map {|p| [p.name, p.id]}, f.object.person_id)%>

  <%= f.hidden_field :_destroy %>
  <%= link_to_function "delete", "remove_fields(this)"
%>

</p>


I would like to change f.select ( because there is a lot of records ) by
auto-completion

any idea ?


thanks!

Patrice

use jquery autocomplete. http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/autocomplete

<http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/autocomplete>sidenote: don''t use
joins as an
association name because it''s an argument for the find method.
