Do you have firebug installed? Or Safari? Or something which gives you a
console? If so, before the autocomplete line, insert:
console.log( $('#zip').val() );
By the way, it was 'val' and not 'value', I was working from memory, and my
memory was obviously a tad faulty. I usually don't use it, so...
Where would I look it up? The jquery documentation: api.jquery.com, more
specifically http://api.jquery.com/category/attributes/
Anyway, if the console.log command outputs the correct value, check to make
sure that the back-end script is being called. If not, we will need more
details.
