Bryan, my Project edit page now looks right, but the autocompleter
doesn't work and the submit shows the spinner but doesn't appear to
add the named custodian to my Project (recall Project has_many
Custodians :through ProjectCustodians). A further tip would be most
appreciated (especially by my wife who wants me to stop playing hacker
and walk down to the beach).
<after-header: class="add-to-association">
<formlet with="&ProjectCustodian.new" update="project-
custodians" reset-form refocus-form>
<div>
Name:
<name-one:custodian complete-target="&@project"
completer="new_custodian_name" />
<formlet-submit label="Add Custodian"/>
</div>
</formlet>
</after-header:>
with this in my Project controller:
autocomplete :new_custodian_name do
@project = find_instance
hobo_completions :name, Custodian.all
end
