Hi,

I just read the tutorial on autocomplete search terms
- http://railscasts.com/episodes/399-autocomplete-search-terms.

My question is, how do I enable linking to the search result so people 
can
click and go to the item permanent link.

Thanks,

William

Where would that link appear? Is that in the search results, or 
elsewhere? As far as I know, the autocomplete search technique is used 
to populate a text field in a form. That form is then submitted, and 
what happens then is up to your controller and views.
