I'm not sure what kind of data autocomplete accepts, as I'm not familiar with the plugin, but I assume an array of values will work.
If your Java servlet is returning "a, b, c, d" as your value string, call: var servletResponse = "a, b, c, d"; // Or however you get the value servletResponse = servletResponse.split(', '); // Split on the delimiter plus a space alert(servletResponse); // [a, b, c, d]; On Feb 3, 5:13 am, "thomas.confuse" <choejens...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, all. > i just started to use Jquery. i m using remote data to pass into > jQuery widget, autocomplete. > but the data from the servlet is generated in this format a, b,c,.... > how can i break the data from the servlet to populate the > autocomplete ? > > Please advice.i m using java for the servlet and the jsp page to for > the form.
