Hi, I'm a jquery newbie, and I'm having trouble making the autocomplete plugin working with cross-domain calls. The alert in my callback function is never executed. Can't figure out why!
Here's the plugin I'm using: http://plugins.jquery.com/project/jq-autocomplete Here's the simple JSON data returned from external server http://include.classistatic.com/include/c3js/classifieds/rel1/auto/a/p3.js: {"kjq":["apple1","apple2","apple3","apple4","apple5","apple6","apple2"]} //Let me know if this is invalid JSON I've modified this line to include a JSONP callback parameter "jsoncallback=?": $.getJSON(ajax, "val=" + input.val() + "&jsoncallback=?", function (json) { alert("Hello");}); What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated!
