    <p>I´m trying to use the JQuery UI Autocomplete plugin (<a href="http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/" rel="noreferrer">click to see the demo page of JQuery UI Autocomplete plugin</a>)</p> <p>I´m using as datasource a list of objects as bellow:</p> <pre><code> var availableTags = [ {label: "Sao Paulo", value: "SP"}, {label: "Sorocaba", value: "SO"}, {label: "Paulinia", value: "PA"}, {label: "São Roque", value: "SR"} ]; </code></pre> <p>The problem is that when I select an item, the value of the datasource is set to the input field and not the label. I´ve created a handle to the select to save the item value in a hidden field and set the label to the input field, but this event is fired too soon by the plugin and the value is re-set to the input field.</p> <p>HTML:</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="JQuery.UI/1.8.14/themes/base/jquery.ui.base.css" /&gt; &lt;link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="JQuery.UI/1.8.14/themes/base/jquery.ui.theme.css" /&gt; &lt;style&gt; .ui-menu-item { font-size: 12px; } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;script src="JQuery/1.6.2/jquery-1.6.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script src="JQuery.UI/1.8.14/js/jquery-ui-1.8.14.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; $(document).ready(function(){ var availableTags = [ {label: "Sao Paulo", value: "SP"}, {label: "Sorocaba", value: "SO"}, {label: "Paulinia", value: "PA"}, {label: "São Roque", value: "SR"} ]; $("#txtCidade").autocomplete({ minLength: 0, source: availableTags); }); function OnSelect(event, ui) { var item = ui.item; var itemLabel = item.label; var itemValue = item.value; $("#hidCidade").val(itemValue); $("#txtCidade").val(itemLabel); } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;form&gt; &lt;input id="hidCidade" type="hidden" /&gt; &lt;input id="txtCidade" type="input" class="ui-autocomplete-input" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>Please, could someone help me with this?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>

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.
