jQuery Autocomplete
jQuery Autocomplete
The jQuery Autocomplete plug-in searches and filters based on user input values, allowing users to quickly find and select from a list of preset values. By giving focus to an Autocomplete field or typing characters into it, the plug-in starts searching for matching entries and displays a list of values to choose from. By entering more characters, the user can filter the list for better matches.
This plug-in is now part of jQuery UI, and the independent version will not be updated. The current version is 1.6.
