text_field_with_auto_complete

rubyonrails-talk
1

I have the following in my view:

<% form_tag :action => 'detail' do %>         Search for Sales Order Number:<br />     <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :sales_order, :id %>&nbsp;         <%= submit_tag " Go "%> <% end %>

And I have the following in my controller:

auto_complete_for :sales_order, :id

This worked fine in 1.5, but now that I've upgraded to Rails 2.0.2, and installed the auto_complete plugin, it doesn't work. The autocomplete simply never happens. I can see the stylesheet change, because everything on the page gets smaller.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong here?

Please let me know if you need more information

Thanks

Do you have CSRF protection on?

Do you have CSRF protection on?

Yes, I did have the protect_from_forgery option in the controller. I turned it off and now it works. Is there anyway to make this work and still have CSRF?

You can turn the protection off for Ajax requests (skip_before_filter :verify_authenticity_token) or apply this patch (I have not personally tried it yet):
