Hi, I''m trying to get autocomplete to work but have been having some problems. It seems that Ajax.Autocompleter(...) is not getting called.

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 using the autocomplete for text field with ''Scriptaculous'' and it works perfectly fine in "new" action. All the examples I see are only for the "new" action. But doesn''t default to the selected value/text in "edit/show" action? Is this possible or should I write custom code for "edit/show" action? Thanks, Hari --
