I want onselection when I select the name it display the id of the name in input field.Please let me know How can I do it or any jquery plugin ?
Thanks
this is Jquery Code :
$("#txt1").autocomplete({
source: function (request, response){
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "YourAddress",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (data) {
response($.map(data.d, function (item) {
return {
id: item.Value,
value: item.Text
}
}))
}
});
},
select: function (event, ui) {
$("#hdnId").val(ui.item.id);//Put Id in a hidden field
}
});
call you ajax request and return JSON data something like this :
[{"Value":val1,"Text":"text1"},
{"Value":val2,"Text":"text2"}]
I tested it.It works great man
Good luck.Foroughi
