Jquery Ui Autocomplete Strange Behavior

Following is my code: var availableTags = ['ActionScript', 'AppleScript', 'Asp', 'BASIC', 'C', 'C++', 'Clojure', 'COBOL', 'ColdFusion', 'Erlang', 'Fortran', 'Groovy', 'Haskell', 'J

Solution 1:

Try this according to this answer on SO

$("#City").autocomplete({
    source: availableTags,
    messages: {
        noResults: '',
        results: function() {}
    }
});

Solution 2:

You have to add jquery-ui.css in your project folder and link it.

Edit the ui-autocomplete in the above .css and add z-index = 4000 into that. Your dropdown should work fine.

Solution 3:

Anton is right.

Also please note I think it's not a best practice to use some id starting in capital :)

$("#city")

Use this example on fiddle.

Solution 4:

I got same problem and solve it with that annoying tooltip by including default css style file for jquery.ui.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="jquery-ui/themes/base/jquery-ui.min.css" />

Just forgot to do this after including jquery-ui javascript source file jquery-ui.min.js.
