Hi,
I´m using the Lightning-Fast Javascript Autocompletion recipe from Rails Recipes.
When I add or remove users in the contact list, changes are immediately reflected in the conacts_for_lookup js array. Indicating that both the javascript and method is executed when reloading _send.rhtml But after a while, the js array is empty: var contacts = new Array(0); Is there a caching issue, causing the method not to be executed every time? If I logout and in again, the array is back.
I´m running in development environment.
views/sms/_send.rhtml <script src="/contacts/contacts_for_lookup" type="text/ javascript"></script>
contacts_controller.rb: def contacts_for_lookup @contacts = Contact.find(:all, :conditions => "company = '#{session[:user_number]}'") headers['content-type'] = 'text/javascript' render :layout => false end
contacts_for_lookup.js var contacts = new Array(<%= @contacts.size %>);
<% @contacts.each_with_index do |contact, index| %> contacts[<%= index %>] = "<%= contact.name %>"; <% end %>
Any tips or hints are highly appreciated!
