I checked today and everything is in order (that is commented out as
is the default).
Do you mean i should have added 1 or more lines to the
"environment.rb" file??
Anyway, so for the sake of completeness, here is my code!
#models#
#----------#
#book model
has_many :book_authorities, :dependent => :delete_all
has_many :authorities, :through => :book_authorities
#authority_model
has_many :book_authorities, :dependent => :delete_all
has_many :books, :through => :book_authorities
#book_authority model
belongs_to :book
belongs_to :authority
auto_complete_for :authority, :surname
#view#
#------#
<div class="book_authority">
<% fields_for "book[book_authority_attributes][]",
book_authority, :index => nil do |bookauthority_form| %>
authority: <%= bookauthority_form.select(:authority_id,
$allnames)
%> <br />
capacity: <%= bookauthority_form.text_field :capacity,
:index =>
nil %> <br />
<% if book_authority.new_record? %>
<%= link_to_function "remove", "$(this).up
('.book_authority').remove()" %>
<% else %>
<%= link_to_function "remove",
"mark_for_destroy_ba(this)" %>
<%= bookauthority_form.hidden_field :id %>
<%= bookauthority_form.hidden_field
:should_destroy, :index =>
nil, :class => 'should_destroy' %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
</div>
#controllers#
#---------------#
#application_controller
def update_authorities
#...@allauthorities = Authority.find(:all, :limit => 5000, :order =>
"id ASC")
@allauthorities = Authority.find(:all)
$allnames = Hash.new()
for a in @allauthorities
$allnames.merge!({ ((a.surname || "") + " " + (a.name || "") +
"," + (a.short_title || "")) => a.id})
end
end
