Autocomplete not works wtih $.ui.autocomplete.prototype._renderMenu method overriding

[jayesh16285]

I have been using following method for autocomplete. $("#inputId").autocomplete(

{

source : function(request, response) {

if($.trim($(this.element).val())==""){

return;

} $.ui.autocomplete.prototype._renderMenu = function(ul, items) {

var self = this; ul

.append("<li><table><tr><td style='width:150px; font-weight:bold;'>Catalog</td><td style='font-weight:bold'>Description</td></tr></table></li>");

$.each(items, function(index, item) {

self._renderItem(ul, item);

});

};

$.getJSON( "/servletName", {

query : $.trim($(this.element).val()),

action: "parameter"

}, response);

}, minLength : 1, select : function(event, ui) {

$("#inputId").val(ui.item.desc); $("#inputId1").val(ui.item.label); return false;

}

}).data("autocomplete")._renderItem = function(ul, item) {

return $("<li></li>").data("item.autocomplete", item) .append( "<a><span style='padding-right:" + (10-item.label.length ) + "px;'>" + item.label + "</span>1&nbsp;---&nbsp" + item.desc + "</a>" ) .append(

"<a><table><tr><td style='width:150px;'>" + item.label

+ "</td><td>" + item.desc + "</td></tr></table></a>").appendTo(ul);

};

But with jQuery UI 1.10.3 it gives me error $.ui.autocomplete.prototype._renderMenu not defined.

Then I use Jquery ui 1.7 and its works fine.

Autocomplete didn't exist in 1.7 and there are some serious problems with this code. Please ask for help on the forums or Stack Overflow.
