I take dates via ajax and create for every date 2 input fields. one
with the date an another empty input field.
On the empty field i want to add the autocomplete plugin/
functionality.


  $(document).ready(function(){
    $("#button").click(function(){

$.get("/test2.txt", function(text){ // a list with dates
var tokens = text.split('|');
var txt;
                                for (var i = 0; i < tokens.length; i++) {
                                        txt = '';
                                        var token = $.trim(tokens[i]);
                                        txt += '<input type="text" 
name="testdate[]" value="'+token+'">';
                                        txt += '&nbsp;<input type="text" 
id="loc'+i+'"
name="testlocation[]" value="">';
                                        txt += '&nbsp;<input type="text" 
id="lochidden'+i+'"
name="testlocationid[]" value="">';

                                        $("div.term").after(txt + '<br>');
// for every field, search.php returns one entry per row like 'title|
description|id'
        $("#loc"+i).autocomplete("/search.php", {
                delay: 150,
                width: 260,
                formatItem: formatItem,
                formatResult: formatResult

        });
// if selected one row of autocomplete
        $("#loc"+i).result(function(event, data, formatted) {
             $("#lochidden"+i).val(data[2]); // data[2] => id (is the
third part => title|description|id)
// alert(data[2]); works
        });

                                }

});
});


        function findValueCallback(event, data, formatted) {
                $("<li>").text( !data ? "No match!" : "Selected: " +
formatted).appendTo("#result");
        }

        function formatItem(row) {
                //var row = row.split("|");
                return row[0] + " (" + row[1] + ")";
        }

        function formatResult(row) {
                return row[0];
        }

        $("#locationX").autocomplete("/test2.txt", {
                delay: 150,
                width: 260,
                formatItem: formatItem,
                formatResult: formatResult,
                selectFirst: false
        });

  });
