I have a select field which i want to change to automplete. Somehow i can use the autocomplete solution from node_reference module, and it works but can't make my own.
So the fields with
['#autocomplete_path'] = 'node_reference/autocomplete/node/field_media_from_reference';
change to autocomplete fielld
but mine with
['#autocomplete_path'] = 'dl/autocomplete/test';
do not, stay as normal textfield

function dl_form_views_exposed_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
    $form['field_media_from_reference_nid']['#type'] = 'textfield';
    $form['field_media_from_reference_nid']['#autocomplete_path'] = 'node_reference/autocomplete/node/field_media_from_reference';

    $form['test']['#type'] = 'textfield';
    $form['test']['#autocomplete_path'] = 'dl/autocomplete/test';
...
}

function dl_menu() {
  $items['dl/autocomplete/test'] = array(
    'title' => 'dl autocomplete',
    'page callback' => 'dl_autocomplete_test',
    'type' => MENU_CALLBACK,
  );
  return $items;
}

function dl_autocomplete_test($string = '') {
  $matches = array("hello", "aloha");
  drupal_json_output($matches);
}

any help appreciated!!
