    <p>I'm looking at <a href="http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/remote-jsonp.html" rel="nofollow">this jQuery Autocomplete example</a>.</p> <p>What I can't figure out is how much of this code depends on the structure of the returned JSON data.</p> <p>For example, there is a line below:</p> <pre><code>name_startsWith: request.term </code></pre> <p>Is <code>name_startsWith</code> a function defined somewhere else or an implicit function of some kind?</p> <p>What is <code>reqest.term</code> that it refers to? I can't find the text <code>term</code> referred to anywhere else in the html document.</p> <p><strong>I want to try substituting my own JSON url into the example to see if it works but I don't know how much of the example needs to change based on the structure of the JSON response data.</strong></p> <pre><code> &lt;script&gt; $(function() { function log( message ) { $( "&lt;div/&gt;" ).text( message ).prependTo( "#log" ); $( "#log" ).attr( "scrollTop", 0 ); } $( "#city" ).autocomplete({ source: function( request, response ) { $.ajax({ url: "http://ws.geonames.org/searchJSON", dataType: "jsonp", data: { featureClass: "P", style: "full", maxRows: 12, name_startsWith: request.term }, success: function( data ) { response( $.map( data.geonames, function( item ) { return { label: item.name + (item.adminName1 ? ", " + item.adminName1 : "") + ", " + item.countryName, value: item.name } })); } }); }, minLength: 2, select: function( event, ui ) { log( ui.item ? "Selected: " + ui.item.label : "Nothing selected, input was " + this.value); }, open: function() { $( this ).removeClass( "ui-corner-all" ).addClass( "ui-corner-top" ); }, close: function() { $( this ).removeClass( "ui-corner-top" ).addClass( "ui-corner-all" ); } }); }); &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div class="demo"&gt; &lt;div class="ui-widget"&gt; &lt;label for="city"&gt;Your city: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;input id="city" /&gt; Powered by &lt;a href="http://geonames.org"&gt;geonames.org&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="ui-widget" style="margin-top:2em; font-family:Arial"&gt; Result: &lt;div id="log" style="height: 200px; width: 300px; overflow: auto;" class="ui-widget-content"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- End demo --&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
