My version already does this (as you may already know.) See: http://www.pengoworks.com/workshop/jquery/autocomplete.htm Look at the "Ajax City Autocomplete" example. $("#CityAjax").autocomplete( "autocomplete_ajax.cfm", { delay:10, minChars:2, matchSubset:1, matchContains:1, cacheLength:10, onItemSelect:selectItem, onFindValue:findValue, formatItem:formatItem, autoFill:true } ); In the settings mapping, the key things to do this are the following: onItemSelect:selectItem - This says call the selectItem() function when an item is selected onFindValue:findValue, - This is the custom function to use when finding a value. The findValue() method will look in the text input element and then look to see if the value is in the cache, if not it will go look it up via AJAX. It'll return a <li /> element with the match, or null if it doesn't exist. You can then look in the "extra" custom attribute to get to all your additional values. formatItem:formatItem, - This defined how the <li /> should be displayed. If you look at the source code in my example, you should be able to get the exact functionality you want. -Dan
