Hello, I think you can just create an Ajax from the front end and call an Auto complete action the return value from DB (if needed) : Like your action can be something like this:
def autoComplete(): q='' if request.vars: q=request.vars.q if not q: return q rows= # Here you retrieve data you want from the DB data='' for row in rows: data = # here you do want you want with the data like format them... return data I hope it helps...
