Autocomplete in joomla

I'd like to add the autocomplete to a joomla componenet that I'm developing I used JQuery I follwed this exemple

http://af-design.com/blog/2010/05/12/using-jquery-uis-autocomplete-to-populate-a-form/

The exemple work well but there is some problem

1 - When you add JQuery with joomla you have some problems with mootlools wen I added Jquery with this code 

 if(!JFactory::getApplication()->get('jquery'))
        {
             JFactory::getApplication()->set('jquery',true);
             $document = JFactory::getDocument();
             $document->addScript(JURI::root() . "administrator/components/com_tkcontrack/assets/js/jquery.js");
        }
        if(!JFactory::getApplication()->get('jquery.min'))
        {
             JFactory::getApplication()->set('jquery.min',true);
             $document = JFactory::getDocument();
             $document->addScript(JURI::root() . "administrator/components/com_tkcontrack/assets/js/jquery.min.js");
        }
        if(!JFactory::getApplication()->get('jquery-ui.min'))
        {
             JFactory::getApplication()->set('jquery-ui.min',true);
             $document = JFactory::getDocument();
             $document->addScript(JURI::root() . "administrator/components/com_tkcontrack/assets/js/jquery-ui.min.js");

        }

I got some Javascript error with Mootools(thank's to firebug)

2 - Even I think some css does not work any more

Well can someone please help me to add autcomplete to joomla componene, and how to add JQuery to Joomla without having problem

Actually I tried to add JQuery with onther way, edit this file \libraries\joomla\document\html\renderer

replace above code with 

 JHtml::_('jquery.framework');

and in your js file start like this

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
 // your code goes here
}

to get ready-made code you can use JQUERY UI in ready function

Not sure on what the error is exactly but it sounds like a conflict.

First of all, you're using the correct method to ensure your scripts only get imported once, however check Firebug see see if you only have 1 of each being imported just in case. You will then need to call noConflict like so:

$document = JFactory::getDocument();
$document->addScriptDeclaration( $noconflict );

What you could also do to import jQuery and jQuery UI only once and in noConflict mode is use the jQuery Easy Plugin:

One of the features that will apply to you is:

  • places jQuery libraries after MooTools calls for perfect compatibility

Hope this helps
