Can someone tell me why my widget in my form isn't included with my model?

I added an autocomplete field to my form. However, when I submit the form a var_dump shows my results as such:




array

  'SearchForm' => 

    array

      'name' => string 'hjhk' (length=4)

      'poster' => string '' (length=0)

  'group' => string 'a' (length=1)

  'yt0' => string 'Submit' (length=6)







<div class="form">

    <?php echo CHtml::beginForm(); ?>


    <?php echo CHtml::errorSummary($model); ?>


    <div class="row">

        <?php echo CHtml::activeLabel($model, 'name'); ?>

        <?php echo CHtml::activeTextField($model, 'name') ?>

    </div>


    <div class="row">

        <?php echo CHtml::activeLabel($model, 'group'); ?>

        <?

        $this->widget('zii.widgets.jui.CJuiAutoComplete', array(

            'model' => $model,

            'name' => 'group',

            'source' => array('ac1', 'ac2', 'ac3'),

        ));

        ?>

    </div>


    <div class="row">

        <?php echo CHtml::activeLabel($model, 'poster'); ?>

        <?php echo CHtml::activeTextField($model, 'poster') ?>

    </div>


    <div class="row submit">

        <?php echo CHtml::submitButton('Submit'); ?>

    </div>


    <?php echo CHtml::endForm(); ?>

</div>

Can someone tell me what I’m missing to attach the field to the model?

Swap name for attribute.
