I found a solution to this. I had to add a jQuery .on() handler for focus.
Is this the best way to handle this?
I guess this isn't a web2py problem, it's the nature of
ajax/javascript/jquery I assume. Any way for web2py to magically fix this
kind of thing?
$(document).ready(function()
{
$(document).on("focus",'#autome',function(e) {
if ( !$(this).data("autocomplete") ) { // If the autocomplete
wasn't called yet:
$('#autome').autocomplete({
source: function(request, response) {
$.ajax({ url:
"/autocomplete/default/myautocomplete.json",
data: request,
dataType: "json",
type: "POST",
success:
function(data){ response(data.source)}
})}});
}
});
$('#autome').autocomplete({
source: function(request, response) {
$.ajax({ url:
"/autocomplete/default/myautocomplete.json",
data: request,
dataType: "json",
type: "POST",
success: function(data){
response(data.source)}
})}});
});
