similar to: scriptaculous - auto complete textbox with a drop down

Good day. I have searched on the net and through the archives to now avail as of yet. I have a text_field_with_auto_complete that searches for company names. These company names obviously can have an ''&'' in the name of the company (example Barnes & Nobel). The auto complete works beautifully. However, the problem arises when I pass the name of the company to the

Folks, I am trying to upgrade code base from 1.3.x to 2.3.2 and not surprisingly, lot of things are broken. ''text_field_with_auto_complete'' is not working for me - it gives the following error: ActionView::TemplateError (undefined method `text_field_with_auto_complete'' for #<ActionView::Base: 0x7f0ceb6b8290>) I already have installed auto_complete - ruby

I need to pass a parameter in my text_field_with_auto_complete and am struggling to discover how to do this. I have something like this: <%= text_field_with_auto_complete ''user'', ''username'', {}, {:with => "''post=''@company_title.id"} %> but because it is in a partial that pops as a result from a remote_function_tag, I am

I''m using the auto_complete plugin, and it works great, my problem is i need to pass multiple parameters to the controller other that what is typed in the text field. <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :search, :contains, :size => 15, :frequency => 0.1, :skip_style => true -%> This is what i have as of now, but i also need to pass ":language => @default"

I am going nuts here.. I have a form where users can write a city name (used with auto_complete) - and once they click on the desired city in the dropdown menu - I would like to have the Country field filled automatically as well... Is this possible at all ? If so, can somebody please tell me where I can find some documentation on the subject, or preferrably an example ? Many thanks in

There has to be a better way to do this. What I am trying is not working, and seems convoluted. Essentially, a controller method is called, and exits by rendering a partial the purpose of which is to simply clear a textbox in the view. So I am calling the partial which established the textbox -- but it doesn''t work (i.e. it doesn''t clear the textbox). Does anyone know of a

Trying to use Amy Hoy''s ajaxariffic auto_complete methodology and I am getting really close to the end. This is fairly complicated but I will simplify as best I can. My view code is simple... <%= text_field_with_auto_complete ''client'', ''wholename'' %> # wholename is not a column in ''clients'' but rather represents an

Dear all: I got the error in my rails 2.2.2 project on ma os x leopard. i did as follow: script/plugin install auto_complete but when i start the server and try to approach the page which used the auto_complete, it can''t find the helper method as the error told: "undefined method `text_field_with_auto_complete'' ", than i try this in script/console helper.methods i

I''m doing this ''partial'' to do some ajax auto_complete <ul class="placements"> <% for client in @clients do -%> <li class="placements"> <div class="clwholename"><%=h client.clwholename %></div> <div class="id><span class="informal"><%= client.id

When using url_for to send path to a script (such as with auto_complete), multiple params are joined with the "&amp;" code. For example: text_field_with_auto_complete :blog :post, {}, { :posts_path(:a => 1, :b => 2), :method => :get } Produces this script: var blog_post_auto_completer = new Ajax.Autocompleter(''blog_post'',

I have been working on this for 3 days and haven''t been able to solve it. I have 2 tables... clients belongs_to: case_managers case_managers has_many: clients When entering new clients, I need to have some type of select box that allows me to pick the case_manager (by name) so that the ''id'' field from the case_manager table is inserted into clients.case_manager_id

I have a crude hack to allow auto_complete to work with indexed text fields. I needed it for a timecard entry form with an arbtirary number of records which can be added/changed/delete willy-nilly by users. One of the fields is a perfect candidate for autocomplete since it references a database object with a large number of choices and long descriptions. Using a select list is extremely ugly in

Hi, I am trying to use text_field_with_auto_complete, it works fine but when I click on an item (even if I use the up and down key and then type enter) th search panel disappears but the selected results is not shown in the text field. Even more, the text field becomes empty. Any idea? Thanks S?bastien -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

When I upgraded to 1.0, I broke autocomplete on a field. I''ve done everything that I can think of to fix the problem, but nothing has worked. I''m able to recreate a simple autocomplete from examples on the various tutorials, but my original code just will not work. <input id="incident_first_party_name" name="incident[first_party_name]"

hi, i have a situation where i have a list of options from which a user selects his options if its not in the list he/she selects Others/Not Present and a new textfield should pop up and the data entered there should be considered instead of dropdown. i have done this using javascript/dhtml but i was wondering how this can be done using pure rails i.e using some of the RoR apis?. i would

I think I may have found a bug with the auto_complete feature in rails: My controller has a before_filter with an except clause preventing the filter from running on a specific action. The action renders a view with a text_field_with_auto_complete field. Much to my suprise, the filter appears to run when I type data into this field! The filter is part of my security regime, so I end up with a

hello there, im having a little problem with Internet Exploiter, im doing this: //// CODE //// var m = $(''XYZ'').cloneNode(false) m.setAttribute(''id'', ''XYZ_2''); m.value = ''''; var onblur = "alert(''hola'');"; m.setAttribute(''onblur'', onblur);

Hi all, all the form helpers can take a serie for options but I cant find any documentation about them. Any one can point me toward one? Or at least tell me how I can for example add a function that would be call with the onblur event from a input box? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
