Take the 2-minute tour ×  I'm at my wits end with this one
because there doesn't seem to be anything viable for this.  I
have tried using jQuery UI's autocomplete from SVN, which can be
found here: http://jquery-
ui.googlecode.com/svn/branches/dev/autocomplete/  But the total
lack of (updated) documentation has got me as far as displaying
a bunch of [Object]'s in my result list, with no clue how to
format it.  I just want a simple autocomplete plugin that:    •
Allows me to return a JSON object that the plugin itself will
parse    • Allows me to specify a seperate inputField from the
displayField so that the user sees "Stackoverflow Industries"
but the input field is actuall "5", the companies id.    •
Obviously, does the basics that an autocomplete plugin will do
Thanks in advance..  share|improve this question add comment  1
