Re: Autocomplete on 1.1.13
I ended up using a regex to get the username and then queried the
database for the username in the controller. From this I got the id.
Probably not the best way, but it seemed like the easiest and the one
that would work on the widest range of platforms.

Re: Autocomplete on 1.1.13
Isn't it a small world
This is from something I did, No change in the controller but I've
modified the below views, the key is to set the user id as the id of the
tag in autocomplet, and then have
a 'user_id' input and a touch of javascritpt in the send view to update
the id field, then set the 'afterUpdateElement' option in
$ajax->autocomplete()
autocomplete.thtml:
send.thtml:
input('Message/user_id'); ?>
function getSelectionId(text, li) {
alert(li.id);
document.getElementById('MessageUserId').value=li.id;
}
autocomplete('Message/user','/contacts/autocomplete',
array('size' => 40,
'afterUpdateElement'=>'getSelectionId'
)
);
?>
textarea('Message/message', array('cols' => '60',
'rows' => '10')); ?>
submit('Send');?>

Sure, here is the sutocomplete.thtml file. It returns the username
and then the full name in brackets
The form is in send.thtml
autocomplete('Message/user',
'/Messages/autocomplete', array('size' => 40)); ?>
textarea('Message/message', array('cols' => '60',
'rows' => '10')); ?>
submit('Send');?>
And the autocomplete function from the messages controller:
function autocomplete() {
$this->set('users', $this->User->findAll(array('User.username' =>
'LIKE '.$this->data['Message']['user'].'%'), array('User.username',
'User.fname', 'User.lname', 'User.id'), 'username DESC',null, null,
0));
$this->layout = "ajax";
}
So the function returns the User.id but I cant see how to pass that to
the view and back again.
