Autocomplete does not work (stopped working)

[xren]

Hi,

I am using the autocomplete by referring the sample code on the ebase ui sample.

When with static array as source, it works.
When change to web service, I can see the web service respond ok, I can see $(xml).text() using alert.

However, the promote does not show.

I am not sure what is the problem.

The jquery and jquery ui is 1.8.3


Thank you

Hi Xiaoli,

I am a little confused about what you mean in your question.

Do you have some script? And a bit more detail.

Kind regards

Steve

Hi Steve,

here is the code:
The bold text is the alert for debugging, the content showed correctly, however, the list would not show up under the field with autocomplete. When I use an array as source, it works fine.

$(document).ready(function(){

$(".phySearch").autocomplete({

source: function(request,response){

var soapEnv = "<xml>"
+"<soap>"
+"<soap>"
+"<ebas>"
+"<ebas>string</ebas>"
+"<ebas>string</ebas>"
+"</ebas>"
+"</soap>"
+"</soap>";

alert(soapEnv);

$.ajax(
{
url: 'http://localhost:3080/ufs/integration/rehab_phy_search',
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'xml',
data: soapEnv,
success: function(xml){
alert($(xml).text());
response($(xml).find('[nodeName="ebas:PHY_LIST"]').map(function(item){
return {
label: $(this).find('[nodeName="ebas:LASTNAME"]').text(),
value: $(this).find('[nodeName="ebas:LASTNAME"]').text(),
phyID: $(this).find('[nodeName="ebas:PHY_ID"]').text()
}//end return {
})); //end response
},//end success
failure: showError,
contentType: "text/xml; charset=\"utf-8\""
});//end ajax
},

Hi Xiaoli,

Sorry I am not sure about this subject.

I was wondering whether the lines:

label: $(this).find('[nodeName="ebas:LASTNAME"]').text()

should read:

label: $(this).find("LASTNAME").text();

same for value and phyID.


Not sure if that helps, but give it a try.

Kind regards

Hi Xiaoli,
In your soapEnv, does it contain the required message? I take it you have removed the content for posting on this forum?

Make your script appears after JQuery Core and UI libraries.

Also, are you getting and passing a search form field? For example:

Code: Select all

var searchword =$(".search").val();

    			var soapEnv = "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='no'?>"
										+ "<soap-env&#58;Envelope xmlns&#58;soap-env='http&#58;//www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope'>"
										+ "<soap-env&#58;Body>"
										+ "<ebas&#58;searchLocalPTRequest xmlns&#58;ebas='http&#58;//www.ebasetech.com'>"
										+ "<ebas&#58;QRY>"+searchword+"</ebas&#58;QRY>" 
										+ "</ebas&#58;searchLocalPTRequest>"
										+ "</soap-env&#58;Body>"
										+ "<soap-env&#58;Envelope>";

Hi Wai,

The web service actually is a test one, it does not use any input but just return one row.
