my code is

 [WebMethod]
    public string[] GetCompletionList(string prefixText, int count)
        {
        if (count == 0)
        {
            count = 10;
        }
        DataTable dt = GetRecords(prefixText);
        List<string> items = new List<string>(count);

        for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++)
        {          
            string strName = dt.Rows[i][1].ToString() + ',' + dt.Rows[i][0].ToString();             
            items.Add(strName);
            //items.Add(System.Drawing.Color.Red);

Getrecords code is

        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@consultantname", strName);
                DataSet objDs = new DataSet();
        SqlDataAdapter dAdapter = new SqlDataAdapter();
        dAdapter.SelectCommand = cmd;
        LITRMSConnection.Open();
        dAdapter.Fill(objDs);
        LITRMSConnection.Close();
        return objDs.Tables[0];
    }

and stored procedure is

CREATE Procedure Usp_Consultant1
    (@consultantname varchar(100))

Answer 1

answer is add the javascript function

 function getCustomers_Populated(sender, e) {

        var customers = sender.get_completionList().childNodes;
        var searchText = sender.get_element().value;

        for (var i = 0; i < customers.length; i++) {

            var customer = customers[i];
            var customerValueArray = (customer._value).split(",");
            var customerId = customerValueArray[0];
            var type = customerValueArray[2];
             customers[i].innerHTML = customerId;
            if (type == 'Employee') {
                customers[i].style.backgroundColor = 'red';
            }
            else {
                customers[i].style.backgroundColor = 'blue';
            }


        }
