Thanks for your replies.
I know that in the example, there is a server-side code called "search.php"
that list all of the autocomplete list. And in that files the words that we
type was get by $_GET['q'].
Now my problem is, as I mentioned before, that it can pass the country ID
with extra params, but how do I get the country ID in the "search.php" files
so I can list all my city based on the country that I choose? What parameter
did the server-side code get for the country ID. I have try $_POST and $_GET
and got nothing.
If I use the example I mentioned before
"
$("#states").autocomplete(url, {
extraParams: {
country: function() { return $("#country").val(); }
}
"
what parameter should I get in the server-side code?
I'm sorry Jack, because I'm really new in javascript :D
Once again thanks for your help.
