Hi,
I can upload the client part but I am generating my JSON using ASP.NET
MVC and the project is not finish so I can't upload it because it uses
a SQL server.
Don't you have any idea what is going on?
I set up a page with this and I will try to explain what I get. When I
use:
$("#Tags").autocomplete("/Professor/GetTags", {
autoFill: true,
selectFirst: false
});
My autocomplete shows but only one option in the list ... however that
option is including all the options returned by the Json according to
that criteria.
For example, if I type "M" I get one option which when selected puts
the following in the input:
[{"TagID":"3fae2160-55f6-4dd0-b856-
fd27f5d307e2","Name":"Matemática","FileTags":[],"ProfessorTags":[]},
{"TagID":"883b197e-0cb3-4528-8403-0877d742bf47","Name":"Matemática
B","FileTags":[],"ProfessorTags":[]}]
You see? It picks the two options.
I tried again and typed "F" and I get:
[{"TagID":"017b253e-596b-4328-85f5-
fd97a783759c","Name":"Física","FileTags":[],"ProfessorTags":[]}]
Which is also right because I have only that record.
So the server code is receiving well the parameter and returning the
filtered records it but somehow the autocomplete interprets that as
only one record and does not display it the right way ...
I am using JSonResult of ASP.NET MVC to return the JSON and it seems
to be ok.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Miguel
