I am new to ASP.NET MVC 2. I do not understand why I am receiving this error. Is there something missing that i'm not referencing correctly.

I'm trying to create a simple jquery autocomplete online search textbox and view the details of the person that i select

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.Mvc; using System.Web.Mvc.Ajax; using DOC_Kools.Models;

namespace DOC_Kools.Controllers { public class HomeController : Controller { private KOOLSEntities _dataModel = new KOOLSEntities();

    //
    // GET: /Home/

    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        ViewData["Message"] = "Welcome to ASP.NET MVC!";

        return View();

    }

    //
    // GET: /Home/

    public ActionResult getAjaxResult(string q)
    {
        string searchResult = string.Empty;

        var offenders = (from o in _dataModel.OffenderSet
                         where o.LastName.Contains(q)
                         orderby o.LastName
                         select o).Take(10);

        foreach (Offender o in offenders)
        {
            searchResult += string.Format("{0}|r\n", o.LastName);
        }

        return Content(searchResult);
    }

    [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
    public ActionResult Search(string searchTerm)
    {
        if (searchTerm == string.Empty)
        {
            return View();
        }
        else
        {
            // if the search contains only one result return detials
            // otherwise a list
            var offenders = from o in _dataModel.OffenderSet
                            where o.LastName.Contains(searchTerm)
                            orderby o.LastName

Home Page

<%= Html.Encode(ViewData["Message"]) %>

    <h2>Look for an offender</h2>

<form action="/Offenders/Search" method="post" id="searchForm">
    <input type="text" name="searchTerm" id="searchTerm" value="" size="10" maxlength="30" />
    <input type="submit" value="Search" />

</form>
<br />

what do i have to do in order for the textbox search to display on the index page? What else do i have to do for the autocomplete to function correctly. i have the autocomplete.js & jquery.js added to the index.aspx view

Any help will be appreciated so that i can get this working.

Thanks!
