Plugins - auto_complete
Add to favoritesExample:
# Controller
class BlogController < ApplicationController
auto_complete_for :post, :title
end
# View
<%= text_field_with_auto_complete :post, title %>
By default, auto_complete_for limits the results to 10 entries,
and sorts by the given field.
auto_complete_for takes a third parameter, an options hash to
the find method used to search for the records:
auto_complete_for :post, :title, :limit => 15, :order => 'created_at DESC'

Great plugin -- thanks. It's small and focused.
Hej. If you have problems to get it work take a look at mini tutorial ho wto use this plugin in Rails > 2.0
http://trix.pl/blog/ruby-on-rails/auto-complete-for-rails-2-0-tutorial
The plugin does not work!!!
No error messages, no documentation available and nothing found in google, if get it working consider yourself lucky.
It used to work like a charm in rails 1.2... :'(
David thanks for the plugin. I have not been able to make it work though. I've made sure everything is in the right place in the controller and views. I don't get any errors in fact I get nothing at all. I have also downloaded the latest .js files with no success. Would appreciate any advice. Thank you again.
Great to have the leaders of RAILS, like David, committed to making transitions in the framework go smoothly. The effort to post this plugin well in advance of RAILS 2.0 - which will no longer natively have the auto complete functionality - is a great example of the quality of the RAILS community.
