Invalid property name in a simple example

Question

I've copied this code from a book about Kivy and python

main.py

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.properties import ObjectProperty
from kivy.network.urlrequest import UrlRequest

import json

class AddLocationForm(BoxLayout):
    search_input = ObjectProperty()
    search_results = ObjectProperty()

    def search_location(self) :
        search_template = "http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/find?q={}&type=like"
        search_url = search_template.format(self.search_input.text)
        request = UrlRequest(search_url, self.found_location)

    def found_location(self, request, data) :
        data = json.loads(data.decode())
        cities = [ "{} ({})".format(d['name'], d['sys']['country']) for d in data['list'] ]
        self.search_results.item_strings = cities

class WeatherApp(App):
    pass


if __name__ == "__main__" :
    WeatherApp().run()

weather.kv

AddLocationForm:

<AddLocationForm>:
    orientation: "vertical"
    search_input: search_box
    search_results: search_results_list
    BoxLayout:
        height: "40dp"
        size_hint_y: None
        TextInput: 
            id: search_box
            size_hint_x: 50
        Button:
            text: "Search"
            size_hint_x: 25
            on_press: root.search_location()
        Button:
            text: "Current location"
            size_hint_x: 25
    ListView:
        id : search_results_list
        item_strings: []

Why do I get the following error?

Invalid property name

Answer 1

id : search_results_list

It's because you have a space after id, it should be

id: search_results_list

If this is in the book, I guess it's a typo.
