Question

The documentation for jQuery UI Autocomplete states that the source property can be set to a URL that returns the suggested items in JSON format. However, it doesn’t elaborate further what the structure of this JSON result is supposed to look like. Could anyone post an example? Thanks!

Answer 1

This is a JSON Format

{source: ["Milan", "Turin", "Venice", "Florence", "Rome"] }

or another source

{source: ["c++", "java", "php", "coldfusion", "javascript", "asp", "ruby"]}
