in the script code
i tried using a django url like this, but it does not work.
<script>
$(function() {
$("#query").autocomplete({
url: "{% url 'shop:search_auto' %}",
select: function (event, ui) { //item selected
AutoCompleteSelectHandler(event, ui)
},
minLength: 2,
});
});

function AutoCompleteSelectHandler(event, ui)
{
var selectedObj = ui.item;
}
</script>
any solutions

Sir I have no idea what I am doing wrong. I created a simple form to test the auto complete.
<div class="container">
<form action="/trial/" method="GET">
{% csrf_token %}
<input type="text" id="Name">
<input type="button" value="submit">
</form>
I followed the steps to add the jQuery script but I keep getting 'fail'. This is my view. Name is my model.

def trial(request):
if request.is_ajax():
q = request.GET.get('term', '')
names =
results = []
for pr in names:
name_json = {}
name_json = pr.name
results.append(name_json)
data = json.dumps(results)
else:
data = 'fail'
mimetype = 'application/json'
return HttpResponse(data, mimetype)


Any guidance would really be appreicated
