[jQuery] Help with Autocomplete - hopefully an easy one
Hello folks,
I'm just looking at the jQuery Autocomplete plugin (http://
docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Autocomplete), and it looks pretty good for
what I need to do. In the demo (http://jquery.bassistance.de/
autocomplete/demo/), the second input is pretty much what I'm looking
for - where a user can hit the down-key and view a list of possible
options without having to first type a search term. What I would like
to know is how to trigger that dropdown remotely (e.g., by clicking a
down-arrow button - many of my target users are not likely to think of
hitting the down key without specific instructions). I tried this on
the demo page:
$("input#month").search();
..but nothing happens. Have I misunderstood the documentation? Is
there an option I need to set first?
