similar to: validation of aggregates

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

I have a number of models that use an aggregation to combine First Name, Middle Initial and Last Name and they have been working fine. I am looking to clean this up, DRY it if possible. I have things like this in application.rb class Clwholename attr_reader :first_name, :middle_initial, :last_name def initialize(first_name, middle_initial, last_name) @first_name = first_name

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

pulling my hair out on this because I don''t understand... I have 2 methods/actions in the same ''placements'' controller that I am concerned with... find, works properly... view code from find.rhtml <td><p><label>Client</label><br/> <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :placement, :clwholename, {} %> </p> </td>

I''ve asked this in various ways but I can''t seem to get much traction - my guess is because not many people are doing this. I am working in a controller/views called placements. Placements belongs_to :client I have a clients model/table - clients has_many :placements in placements/find...this works fine... <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :placement, :clwholename, {} %>

I am trying to get more out of auto_complete than it apparently was designed to deliver. My problems seem to be two fold. 1 - I use aggregations on names... :first_name, :middle_initial, :last_name and then aggregate them using a composed_of :wholename thing auto_complete_for seems to be wired to only use table columns directly and gags on the aggregate form. 2 - foreign table columns -

Trying to use Eric''s help and Amy Hoy''s page of playing with auto_complete and decided that the script/console is the place to rapidly test. I have this feeling that CONCAT isn''t working for postgresql... c = find_by_sql(SELECT * FROM clients WHERE CONCAT (first_name,middle_initial,last_name) = "johnadams") ^ (irb):61:

I have an object that I would like to remove from params hash thinking that may solve a problem (it might not). params[:placement][:clwholename] how can I just remove it from the params hash? Craig

I have the text_field_with_auto_complete woking on my user DB using last_name. so looking for ''ivanoff'' works great, but I can''t find ''john''. Plus I like to have ''last_name, first_name'' show up in the dropdown. what I can''t figure out is how to concat first_name and last_name to make a name and use that to look it. working

Hi all ! I began to develop Rails applications with Aptana Radrails under Windows. For that I had successfully installed auto_complete plugin and succeeded to use it. Now I have an iMac and I''m trying to restart my developments under OS X. My problem is: when I run the command ''script/plugin install auto_complete'', the result is: Plugin not found:

I have been trying to write a selector function for Autocompleter.Local that will show a predefined Array and will scroll automatically to the first match. I have had success with with getting my list to populate and show all of the choices, however I cannot get it to scroll to the first match. Since I build the JS Array I can know exactly how many items are in the list going into my selector,

Having problems with the autocomplete on my linux box and firefox. When I use form tags it breaks, without form tags everything works fine. Exact copy of the example provided, but I added form tags.. The initial search and select works but then the box sort of "locks up" and I can''t change it at all, If I do try to type something nothing changes but a second later the whole

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 think I can have finally reduced my problem to something somebody can help me with. I am using auto_complete... specifically the form command is... <%= text_area_auto_complete_for :case_manager :name %> I need to use the value derived here in my controller... If I use... cm = CaseManager.find(:first, :conditions => "name = ''Thomas E Dewey''") it works.

Hi All Before I investigate further, has anyone implemented an Autocompleter that will auto scroll down / up the results div as the user moves down through the list (using arrow keys) ? Any pointers / thoughts appreciated. Best Matt *********************************************************************************** The Royal Bank of Scotland plc. Registered in Scotland No 90312.

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 am furiously trying to find what I am looking for in Pickaxe book and not finding it. I''m getting some values back from a posted form and I need to get the ''id'' number off the backend. The ''String'' will always come back to me as... Some_name\r\n123 where 123 is actually the id number which I need to execute the find. The reason they are coming back

In my model, I am attempting to correct some bad data rather than just pass an error message back to the user. The problem is that my fix seems to get the data past validation but it then puts the bad data into the database rather than the new(and improved) data. If I pass in web_site with the value of ''www.test.com'', it will pass validation but it won''t add

Hi, I just noticed that the auto_complete plugin does not work with the CSRF protection in Rails 2.0. I''ve patched the plugin, but I''m wondering if people would like to see the official plugin fixed. If so, speak up and I will write some tests and submit the patch.
