Hi Anthony, I am rebuilding an application that uses the jQuery UI autocomplete widget.
In the view I have the following code: <script type="text/javascript"> $(function() {$("#no_table_name").autocomplete({source: "{{=URL('jquery', 'name_autocomplete')}}", minLength: 2});}); </script> name_autocomplete is a function in the jquery controller: def name_autocomplete(): left = [db.app_settings.on(db.vtx_vertex.id==db.app_settings.vertexID)] rows = db((db.vtx_vertex.name.contains(request.get_vars.term, case_sensitive=False)) & ((db.vtx_vertex.typeID.belongs(ORGANIZATIONID, IOTHINGID)) | ((db.vtx_vertex.typeID==PERSONID) & (db.app_settings.viewtypeID>ZEROID) & (db.app_settings.openID==PUBLIC)))).select(db.vtx_vertex.name, left=left, distinct=True, orderby=db.vtx_vertex.name).as_list() result = [r['name'] for r in rows] return response.json(result) I'd like to use SQLFORM.widgets.autocomplete(request, db.vtx_vertex.name, limitby=(0,10), min_length=2, db=db(Filter)) I don't know how to code the filter to give me the same list of values. Is it possible for Filter to call name_autocomplete() in the jquery controller.
