Am a bit confused here, what does the formatResult and formatItem do in the JQuery Autocomplete plugin?
I have a function that is returning a comma separated string (from Django), but my autocomplete function is unable to split the string into individual entries/rows, how can i achieve this using autocomplete functions?
e.g the returned result looks like this and this what autocomplete is showing :-
[one,oneTwo, Onethree, anotherOne]
I want when showing in the autocomplete field to have it split like this:-
one
oneTwo
Onethree
anotherOne
I have a feeling i can use the formatResult and formatItem but i dont know how, there are no good examples out there !!
my code in the html template:
function autoFill(){
$(#tags).autocomplete(/taglookup/, {
width: 320,
max: 4,
highlight: false,
multiple: true,
multipleSeparator: ,
scroll: true,
scrollHeight: 300
});
}
Am using Dajango to process the GET request.
