jquery - Chang autocomplete-rails to search on all parts of string instead of just the beginning -


i've got autocomplete fields i'd user able enter part of search term correct result. example, if type "ang", they'd angel , los angeles. tried changing source array here no luck:

$.widget( "ui.autocomplete", { version: "1.10.2", defaultelement: "<input>", options: {     appendto: null,     autofocus: false,     delay: 300,     minlength: 1,     position: {         my: "left top",         at: "left bottom",         collision: "none"     },     source: array, 

do need make change somewhere in autocomplete-rails.js file? help.

i think need change on rails end of things, since pattern matching won't readily available client side. imagine need override method autocomplete uses find results use more like

city.where('name = ?, ["%#{params[:name]}"]) 

i'm not expert in sql, idea.
