Hi!

I've been using the autocomplete for quite a while already but for some reason it has stopped working. I went to the limesurvey workarounds manual and updated the script I was using but still get the following error:

fullArray = $.csv.toArrays(data);
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'toArrays' of undefined.


Thanks for your help!!


The whole code I am using is the following:


<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

$(document).ready(function() {

// Define the CSV filename
var csvName = 'fsa.csv';

// Define some paths
var surveyRoot = location.pathname.split('index.php')[0];
// var templateName = $('head link[href*="template.css"]').attr('href').replace(/\/template.css/, '').split('/templates/')[1];
var csvPath = surveyRoot+'autocomplete/';

// Define the questions
var q1ID = '{QID}';
var q1 = $('#question'+q1ID);
// var q2 = $(q1).nextAll('.text-short:eq(0)');
// var q3 = $(q1).nextAll('.text-short:eq(1)');

// Define the path to the CSV
var url = csvPath+csvName;

// Create an array to hold the CSV rows
var namesArr = new Array();

// Grab the CSV contents
$.get( url, function( data ){

// Convert CSV contents to an array of arrays
fullArray = $.csv.toArrays(data);
// Load the CSV rows array
$(fullArray).each(function(i, item){
namesArr.push(item[0]);
});

// Initialise the autocomplete plugin
$('input.text', q1).autocomplete({
source: namesArr,
});
});
});
</script>

It doesn't look like the CSV contents are being imported correctly.

What changes were made to the installation before the error appeared?

Hi Tony,
Thanks for your response.

I just updated limesurvey. I also changed the survey template. But I moved everything as it should be. And I don't get an error of not finding the csv.

I'll provide a link to a test question later today for you to look at.

Thanks!

Tony,

Here is the link to the question

research.gbresearch.net/index.php?r=surv...x/sid/629456/lang/en

And this is the link of the file....

gbresearch.net/research/autocomplete/fsa.csv

A couple of things to check...

1) This line should have a lower-case v in "Var"
2) Because you are using a subdomain, the URL defined in that line leads to research.gbresearch.net/research/autocomplete/fsa.csv which doesn't exist. I think the defined URL should simply be "autocomplete/fsa.csv".

I changed it as suggested but still not working.

Any more suggestions?

I would think it stopped working when we changed the limesurvey from gbresearch.net/research to research.gbresearch.net

Do you think it could be the problem? Yet, it seems it finds the file correctly.

Try using an absolute path to the CSV.

Pardon my ignorance. But how do I do that?

Tony,

Just wanted to let you know that I was able to fix it.

What I did:

I was using the jquery.csv.js version .5 that is posted on the limesurvey wiki
code.google.com/p/jquery-csv/source/brow...77f1d747bc860b943fe7

Apparently that's an old code.

I found in google a new version 0.71

code.google.com/p/jquery-csv/downloads/d...csv-0.71.js&can=2&q=

I replaced the old version for the new one and my autocomplete started working!!!


Thanks for your support.

Thanks. I've updated the links on the Workaround page.
