RE: Filtered drop down choice django

Hi Sushanth,

 

I am currently working through the book “Django JavaScript Integration: AJAX and jQuery” by Jonathan Hayward. In Chapter 7 he covers autocomplete (see http://jqueryui.com/ or more specifically http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/) to handle filtered drop down.

In the meantime, also look at:

I think this is quite detailed and has some good comments as well.
