I'm becoming crazy with Kendo UI AutoComplete component. I'm using my own functions to access data with jQuery, so I have to set the AutoComplete dataSource.transport.read as a function. The code is something like this. minLengthAtocomplete = 3; $('#autocomplete').kendoAutoComplete({ minLength : 3, filter : "contains", dataValueField : "key", dataTextField : "value", dataSource : new kendo.data.DataSource({ transport : { read : _OnTransportRead }, schema : { /* object schema */ } }) }); function _OnTransportRead(e) { var text = $.trim(e.data.filter.filters[0].value); if (text && text.length >= minLengthAtocomplete) { _GetUsers( text, function onSuccess(data) { var users = []; /* sets users with info in data */ e.success(users); }, function onError(error) { /* stuff with error */ } ); } } function _GetUsers(userName, onSuccess, onError) { /* Ajax to get users from DB */ } This code runs perfectly, but dataSource.transport.read is called only the once. I do a first search with the text 'michae' and AutoComplete component runs its dataSource.transport.read as expected. Then, I add a one more letter to search for 'michael' , and dataSource.transport.read is never called again. Is so frustrating! I tried using autoSync dataSource property, manual dataSource Sync, set new dataSource objects on AutoComplete dataBound, but no luck. What am I doing wrong? What am I forgetting? Thanks in advance.
