all i need is a very simple auto complete that suggests words that have the letters the user is typing in them, very simple, nothing fancy, either inline or from an external file, i only need about 20 or so results to be suggested total.

I saw this one: http://jquery.bassistance.de/autocomplete/demo/?

but it's 8kb, which is pretty big for what I need it for, does anyone know of a smaller light weight autocomplete script? or does anyone know the jquery to provide a super simple autocomple?

thanks!

and i'm not using Jquery UI, that's a crappy bloated add-on to Jquery, so I can't use their autocomplete, i'm sure it's 10000mb large anyways.

A: 

if 19kb is large, the one you mention is deprecated, then write your own. You can cut out the generalizations he makes that add some bloat. You would probably do yourself a favor using the one from jQuery UI, since it undergoes rigorous testing.
