What am I misunderstanding... ??
Building a form with fields that really need to be autocompleted
(potentially 1,000+ possible values).
Looked at the book which says "two possible uses for the autocomplete widget:
to autocomplete a field that takes a value from a *list* or to autocomplete
a *reference field*"
I assumed that "list" meant an ordinary Python list object, but when I try:
fields = []
...
name_list = ['name1', 'name2']
fields.append(Field('school', 'string' , label=T('School Name?')
,
widget=SQLFORM.widgets.autocomplete(request , name_list, limitby=(0,10),
min_length=0)
, requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()))
...
enter_data_form=SQLFORM.factory(*fields, table_name='enter_data')
I get the following:
<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> 'list' object has no attribute
'tablename'
which I interpret to mean that 'list' in this case means something
different than I expected.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
