Django jquery-ui数据库自动完成

Question

I want to use jquery-ui autocomplete plugin with my model. I have this model:

class Baslik(models.Model):
    user = models.ForeignKey(User, null=True, blank=True)
    title = models.CharField(max_length=50)
    timestamp = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, auto_now=False)
    updated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=False, auto_now=True)
    active = models.BooleanField(default=True)

To make this done I used the codes below: input:

<input id="n" type="text" name="n"/>

js:

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
     $( "input#n" ).autocomplete({
                            source: "{% url "autoco" %}",
                            minLength: 2
        });
});
</script>

view:

def autoco(request):
     term = request.GET.get('term')
     bslk = Baslik.objects.filter(title__istartswith=term)
     res = []
     for b in bslk:
          dict = {'id':b.id, 'label':b.__unicode__(), 'value':b.__unicode__()}
          res.append(dict)
     return HttpResponse(simplejson.dumps(res))

url:

url(r'^autoco/$', 'autoco', name='autoco'),

but it still does not work. When I just use local values in js code it works fine but in this case I cannot get any auto complete. When I type something to input, terminal shows a log like "GET /autoco/?term=se HTTP/1.1" 500 9892 What I did wrong. Any opinion would help. Thanks.

The problem is in your urls.py. You can't refer to the view just as the string 'autoco' . Either refer to it as 'myapp.views.autoco' , or import the actual view function and refer to it directly as autoco without the quotes.
