hey guys im trying to develop a autocomplete search input field but I want to add a search category inside the input field where they can select other search options to define their choice

search options I wish to put into the input field on the right

1. <ul id='search_options'>

   <li class='title'><strong>Category Selection:</strong></li>

   <li class='app'>All Categories</label></li>

   <li class='app'>Electrical</label></li>

   </ul>

autocomplete code

1. $(document).ready(function()

   {

   function search_autocomplete(selector, tags, default_value)

   {

   $('#' + selector).focus(function()

   {

   if($('#' + selector).val() == default_value)

   {

   $('#' + selector).val('');

   }

   });

   $('#' + selector).blur(function()

   {

   if($('#' + selector).val() == '')

   {

   $('#' + selector).val(default_value);

   }

   });

   $('#' + selector).autocomplete(

   {

   source: tags

   });

   }

   var availableTags = [ "ActionScript",

   "AppleScript",

   "Asp"];

   search_autocomplete('query', availableTags, 'Search...');

   });

any help would be appreciated thank you
