Hmmm... code

I paginate the data

@books = Book.paginate :page => params[:page], :conditions => ['title LIKE ?', "%#{params[:q]}%"]

then respond requests

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html # new.html.erb
      #format.xml  { render :xml => @user_book}
      format.js
    end


As you see, i don't have any .js responding, but i do have a file named new.js.erb with:

<%= @books.collect(&:title).join("\n") %>

So what it basically does is paginate the results of "title" in each line.

Now i want to show that list into a textfield like google does, that list is composed of books so you don't have to actually type the book that ur reading if somebody else did

For that, i'm using in my view file:

<%= f.text_field :title, :onfocus => "$(##{:title}").autocomplete('http://0.0.0.0:3000/books/new/books.js')", :new => nil %>

I know i could work on a route and take out that address... but i'm new to rails and i want to do that project to learn and then find stuff that i could do better.

Thanks for the help!

module CustomersHelper
def customer_names_for_autocomplete
current_account.customers.map(&:to_s).to_json
end
end

<% content_for :head do %>

<script type="text/javascript"> $(function() { var companies = <%= company_names_for_autocomplete %>; $("#customer_company_name").autocomplete({source: companies}); }); </script>

<% end %>

<%= customer.input :company_name, :label => "Company" %>
