This is the HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favbar.png" />

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
$("#search").autocomplete({
source: function( request, response ) {
$.ajax({
url: "/search",
dataType: "jsonp",
data: {
featureClass: "P",
style: "full",
maxRows: 12,
term: request.term
},
success: function( data ) {
response( $.map( data.results, function( item ) {
return {
label: item,
value: item
}
}));
}
});
}
});
});
</script>
<script src="/stylesheets/bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<!-- CSS -->
<link href="/stylesheets/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">

</head>
<body>
<input type="text" id="search" class="search-query" placeholder="Search..." />
</head>
</body>
</html>
And this is the node.js code:
app.post('/search', function (req, res){
var regex = new RegExp(req.body.term);
usermodel.aggregate({$match: { user: regex }}, function (err, users){
if (err) throw err;
var names = [];
for (var nam in users) {
names.push(users[nam].user);
}
var result = { results: names }
res.json(result);
});
});
This code doesn't work. I get perfectly the AJAX request, the problem is the Node.js response. I don't know if is the type of the response, or the way I send it. names in an array with all the results, and I send it like this { result: names }. Maybe I should send only res.json(result). In some examples use a GET request, and I use POST, should I change that?
I use mongodb and mongoose for the database.
How can I do this? Thank's advance!
