Hi, Thanks. I still cannot pinpoint where I can handle the following problem, any guidance greatly appreciated. My data can have multiple words for one entry that must be separated by a comma. For example: array [ "Item 1", "Item 2", "Item, value3"... ];
When my clients type in the autocomplete field I need the comma to be ignored, so for example: If they type 'Item va' I need 'Item, value3' to be returned in the autocomplete prompt list. At the moment clients have to type 'Item, va' to see 'Item, value3' in the autocomplete prompt list. How can I handle this.

For speed I have created my Array of data to be searched client side in a .js file as I have 25k + items. In Firefox and IE8 the auto prompt is very fast - however in for some clients it is not - for example some using IE7. How can I speed up the load process? 2.
