Hi Claude, We use the jQuery UI library for this. We have a table that consists of over 20,000 medical diagnosis and we have no "slowdown" when auto-suggesting, as you type the list.
I have not ever used the built-in ajax functions of CF so can't comment any - on whether or not there is a better way to do with that usage. Gavin.
