jquery autoComplete append

jquery autoComplete append


  1.     $('.autoPhase').autocomplete({
  2.         source: 'files_json/auto_Phasecode.php',
  3.         minLength: 1,
  4.         select:function(evt, ui)
  5.         {
  6.             form_edit.proj_PhaseCodes.value = ui.item.phaseCode;
  7.         }
  8.     });

    I have the above autocomplete code. Works great!! BUT what I would really like to do is append the ui returned value to the form_edit.proj_PhaseCodes.value rather than just store the value.

TIA for your assistance
