Subject: I am trying to do an autocomplete with jquery and ruby

I'm not sure what is wrong with this code. I am trying to do an
autocomplete feature with a list that gathers information from the
database. It doesn't seem to be working and I'm stuck as to what is
wrong. The only thing I can surmise that is wrong is the double quotes.
I know that everything is correct up with generating the list. When I
view the source file,
available tags = [&quot;Zurich North America&quot;];
Can anyone help me?

<script type = "text/javascript">


<% @availableTags = Array.new %>
<% @res.each do |record| %>
 <% @name_tld = record['Vendor_Name'].to_s %>
 <% test1 = "\"#{@name_tld}\"\n" %>
 <% @availableTags += [test1] %>
 <% end %>


 $(function() {

var availableTags = [<%= @availableTags.map(&:to_s).join(", ") %>];

    $( "#tags" ).autocomplete({

      source: availableTags

    });

  });

</script>
