Hi
Is it possible to use the autocomplete plugin to search using a
keyword on more than one field of a model? How can I do that?
When you use autocompletion, you define a field to watch, and an
endpoint to query against. Whatever query conditions you put in the
method that "answers" that endpoint will be the results that appear in
the autocompleter's list.
So if you had generated:
new Ajax.Autocompleter('person','/people/lookup',{});
Then in Person#lookup you would be looking for
Person.all(:conditions => ['first_name LIKE ? OR last_name
LIKE ?'],"#{params[:value]}%","#{params[:value]}%"])
Crude example, but you get the idea...
