JQuery Auto Suggest Serverside

Question

Coming up with a server side JQuery plug-in is proving to be a bit brutal. I have looked around for one but they work off static information. Does anyone have a good free server-side Auto suggest for JQuery?

Answer 1

Do you mean you want a client-side JQuery autocomplete control that queries a server-side database for the data? If so, this tutorial covers exactly that, with a live demo here.

Answer 2

Take a look at these:

1. pengoworks
2. ajax daddy
3. jQuery Site

Example:

$('#autocomplete').autocomplete("myWebService.ashx");

You would then create the myWebService.ashx that your jQuery would call to get the data from, typically in JSON format...
