jQuery Forum

Hi this is my first post!

I'm v new to JQuery, but already am excited about it. But am stuck on this because I can't find any real examples...

I want to link up the JQuery autocomplete module up to my MySQL database using PHP.

I've got the JQ part working fine. But I don't know how to display/format my PHP array? Should I just print_r() the array, or run through it and each out every value? Or do I display it in an unordered list?

It seems that echoing out each value (on their own or as a list item) screws up the JQ display.

JQuery:

$().ready(function() {

   $("#name").autocomplete("/autocomp.php", {
      width: 350,
      selectFirst:false,
      delay:10,
      minChars:1,
      matchCase:false,
      mustMatch:false,
      autoFill:false,
   });
});
<input id="name" />


PHP:

$input = $_GET['q'];
# then do SQL to find matches for this
# return results as an array
# ... now how do I display this data ??


Thanks in advance
