i'm trying to use autocomplete to search some files, but its not working and i dont know why.
will make a example of a simple autocomplete working with a database result:
$items = array();
while(!$res->EOF){
$descPi = "PI: ".$res->fields["FIELD1"];
$descEmb = " - EMB: ".$res->fields["FIELD2"]."/".$res->fields["FIELD3"]."/".$res->fields['FIELDS4'];
$origem = " - ORI: ".$res->fields['FIELD5'];
$fornec = " - FOR: ".$res->fields['FIELD6'];
$items[$descPi.$descEmb.$origem.$fornec] = $res->fields["FIELD1"];
$res->MoveNext();
}
this work perfect, outputting a array like this (by firebug):
Array
(
[PI: 3221554 - EMB: 30/6/2012 - ORI: TAIWAN - FOR: SIRUBA] => 3221554
)
[ { "id": "3221554", "label": "PI: 3221554 - EMB: 30/6/2012 - ORI: TAIWAN - FOR: SIRUBA", "value": "PI: 3221554 - EMB: 30/6/2012 - ORI: TAIWAN - FOR: SIRUBA" } ]
perfect.
And now i have almost the same, but searching files, and its not working:
$items = array();
for($j=0;$j<count($files);$j++)
{
if($files[$j] != "." and $files[$j] != ".."){
$items[$files[$j]] = $files[$j];
}
}
and output this (by firebug):
Array
(
[Dock.jpg] => Dock.jpg
[Forest Flowers.jpg] => Forest Flowers.jpg
[Forest.jpg] => Forest.jpg
[Tree.jpg] => Tree.jpg
)
[ ] // return's empty
debugging the code, i found this strpos validation and he say's that my array its returning false, not entering to make the array_push:
$result = array();
foreach ($items as $key=>$value) {
if (strpos(strtolower($key), $q) !== false) {
array_push($result, array("id"=>$value, "label"=>$key, "value" => strip_tags($key)));
}
if (count($result) > 11)
break;
}
so, comparing the two arrays , i did not found any diference, what i'm missing ?
that's it, any question, be my guest.
