If wish to build such a feature, there is nothing specifically Pyramid about doing so, although it can help.
What you are looking an is an autocomplete box. The components would be: 1. javascript which makes a call to the server with the values to be completed and then fills in the box once the server responds 2. code on the server which sends back a list of values for the javascript to use The jquery library is popularly used for 1. (the 'Ajax' part). Have a look at http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/autocomplete For 2., this is where you can use Pyramid. You will need a route on your server which accepts the request from Jquery and then returns data in the appropriate format. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6371276/simple-pyramid-ajax-jquery-questions for a short summary/example. As mentioned there, you can use the xhr parameter to your add_route to detect that the request came from Jquery if you wish (see https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/1.0/api/config.html#pyramid.config.Configurator.add_route ). If you want to use a form library, then Deform has a specific example of how to do this (although you will still have to handle step 2): http://deformdemo.repoze.org/autocomplete_remote_input/ Hope some of this helps, Ben On 12 September 2011 06:06, Edvinas Narbutas <enarbu...@gmail.com> wrote: > How would you call a python function in pyramid for a 'Google type' > search pop up box with Ajax or any other way?
