Thanks for the reply... 

Please forgive me.. but  I should have provided the actual example of what im using (code originally from the demo page)

<input
autocomplete
="off" id="contact_name" name=
"contact[name]"
size ="30" type="text"
value="" />
<div class=
"auto_complete"
id="contact_name_auto_complete"></div>
<
script
type="text/_javascript_">
new Ajax.Autocompleter.Local ('contact_name', 'contact_name_auto_complete',
new Array("Jack Jackson","BoB Smith", "Mary Jane"),

{
tokens: new Array(',','\n'), fullSearch: true, partialSearch: true}
};

</script>


but what i need is to display Jack Jackson.. but return a key from a value from the db. IE if Jackjackson id # is 234


Thanks so much for any input :)

you could try returning the options that way:

<option><span style="display: none">234</span><span class="informal">228282SSS</span></option>

This should display 228282SSS but fill the field 234 when it is selected

Hello...


http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/autocompleter

I have a question in reqards to the above demo...

I have a list of alphanumeric values that I need in the drop down.. however...
I need the ID numbers that are pulled from the db that related to each of the paticular numbers to
be placed as the value... ie:

<option value=234>228282SSS</option>

I would like the userver to search the list based on the 228282SSS  but the value is what is returned (234)  !

is this possible.. and if so.. how ?

Thanks so much for your time
