Hi,
I am a big noob but I would like to know how to achieve the following 2 things:
1) I need to use autocompletion.local to increase speed of retrieval since i only have items of no more than 30.
However, I want the list of possible items to be dynamic ie if I should refresh the page, the javascript array of items will be regenerated.
Similar to the lightning fast autocomplete eg in Rails recipes.
but the @headers have been deprecated causing the eg not to work in 1.2.6 rails. Even when i switch to headers, the eg still did not work. Please advise.
2) Other than that, I need the autocompletion.local to do the following.
Similar to the way google finance looks up the stock symbol.
My autocomplete list search will display 2 parameters similar to google finance like:
<symbol for stock 1><space><name for stock 1> <symbol for stock 2><space><name for stock 2> ...
OR
<property1 of itemModel 1><space><property2 of itemModel 1> <property1 of itemModel 2><space><property2 of itemModel 2> ...
and I need my search to be done such that its searching through both symbols and names, basically 2 different parameters.
and when i choose any item, it should only display one of the 2 parameters inside the textbox.
So sorry I am asking so much. But i tried googling and I was not successful. Perhaps I am not using the right key words.
Thank you all.
