I have a form on my website in which one is able to submit a cat. The form contains inputs such as "Name" and "Gender", but I am just trying to get the auto completion to work with the "Name" field. Here is what my jquery looks like :
$(document).ready(function() {
$( "#tags" ).autocomplete({
source: '/Anish/auto_cat'
});
});
Here is what my model looks like:
public function auto_cat($search_term) {
$this->db->like('name', $search_term);
$response = $this->db->get('anish_cats')->result_array();
// var_dump($response);die;
return $response;
}
}
Here is my controller:
public function auto_cat(){
$search_term = $this->input->get('term');
$cats = $this->Anish_m->auto_cat($search_term);
}
And here is my view:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/resources/demos/style.css" />

I am stuck. In my console, I am able to see this output when I type the letter 'a' if I uncomment the var_dump in my model:
