[jQuery] Re: jQuery Autocomplete - After service call if result is NULL then layer should be invisible

[tarave]

As I mentioned in my earlier post I have the same problem with
autocomplete.

The fix/workaround that I added to my page was to add a validation
that is executed just prior to the page submit.

The validation takes the typed in value and queries my data source to
verify the typed in value exists.  If the value does not exist the
validation raises an error the user has to deal with.  Doing these met
all my requirements and I did not have to change the plugin logic.

Todd

I'm having the same problem today.  Looks like another person did to
and thier fix was to put a hack into the autocomplete plugin code.
