Auto complete box implemented using appengine

Question

I am developing an application using python version of appengine. I would like to implement a auto complete box in my application. The suggestions for the auto-complete options will be derived from a string property in my data model. Please help by providing an example of a similar implementation.

Answer 2

You can have a look at the jquery auto complete here

HTML :

$("#search_users").autocomplete(URL);

PYTHON:

        q = (self.request.GET['q']).lower() 
        #query on model 
        for records in result:
            print records+"|"+records+"\n"
