I'm using the jQuery UI Autocomplete function. I can make it work with the example provided with jQuery UI like this: var availableTags = [ "ActionScript", "AppleScript", "Asp", "BASIC", "C", "C++", "Clojure", "COBOL", "ColdFusion", "Erlang", "Fortran", "Groovy", "Haskell", "Java", "JavaScript", "Lisp", "Perl", "PHP", "Python", "Ruby", "Scala", "Scheme" ]; $("#tags").autocomplete({ source: availableTags }); This works without any problems. But I need to use JSON as my data source who can be retrieved like this: http://mysite.local/services/suggest.ashx?query=ball If I'm going to that URL I get JSON back like this: [{"id":12,"phrase":"Ball"},{"id":16,"phrase":"Football"},{"id":17,"phrase":"Softball"}] How can I use my URL as the data source? I've tried changing the source-option like this: $("#tags").autocomplete({ source: "http://mysite.local/services/suggest.ashx" }); But it doesn't help. I guess that the service doesn't know which keyword has been typed in the input field or so? Any pointers would be great.
