Compare with:

search_field(object_name, method, options = {})

Returns an input of type “search” for accessing a specified attribute (identified by method) on an object assigned to the template (identified by object_name). Inputs of type “search” may be styled differently by some browsers.

search_field(:user, :name)
# => <input id="user_name" name="user[name]" type="search" />
search_field(:user, :name, autosave: false)
# => <input autosave="false" id="user_name" name="user[name]" type="search" />
search_field(:user, :name, results: 3)
# => <input id="user_name" name="user[name]" results="3" type="search" />
#  Assume request.host returns "www.example.com"
search_field(:user, :name, autosave: true)
# => <input autosave="com.example.www" id="user_name" name="user[name]" results="10" type="search" />
search_field(:user, :name, onsearch: true)
# => <input id="user_name" incremental="true" name="user[name]" onsearch="true" type="search" />
search_field(:user, :name, autosave: false, onsearch: true)
# => <input autosave="false" id="user_name" incremental="true" name="user[name]" onsearch="true" type="search" />
search_field(:user, :name, autosave: true, onsearch: true)
# => <input autosave="com.example.www" id="user_name" incremental="true" name="user[name]" onsearch="true" results="10" type="search" />
