I am trying to do a search where I can enter a part of a word and the
search find all occurrences of that part word in the field. The above
subject does not work. Can anyone help
I am using Rails 3 and ruby 1.9.2
I use to be able to do it in rails 2.x.
In my Model I have the following:-
  def self.search(search_item)
    if search_item
     self.where('section = ?', '%:search_item%')
    else
      self.all
    end
  end

In my controller I have:-
    @homepages = Homepage.search(params[:search])
    respond_to do |format|
      format.html # index.html.erb
      format.xml  { render :xml => @homepages }
      format.js {render :js => @homepages}
    end
