I am using the JQuery Autocomplete UI with my rails app and it is working really well. I am sending the below JSON in my index.js.erb and both the value and title are working well. I found this example of using :img => "#(h{@object.img_url})" , but I have not been able to get it to work.
[{"value":"Moby Dick","img":"http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/517TZoo2JL._SL75_.jpg","label":"Moby Dick"}]
Should this be working? or is this example not correct. If you have any suggestions on how to get the image to show up, I would really appreciate it. Below is the JS code I am using in my application.js
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".auto_search_complete").autocomplete({
dataType: "json",
source: '/books.js',
minLength: 3
})
})
Thanks!
James
