So I am using jquery.autocomplete.js, demo can be found here http://www.ajaxdaddy.com/demo-jquery-autocomplete.html I want to be able to return a span value in an alert message. this is the php file that echos results:
$email="span id= emaild ".$rs[ email ]. /span ; $str.= $email." ".$rs[ phone ]." ".$rs[ address1 ]." ".$rs[ address2 ]." "."
"; echo $str;
email is inside a span tag. when I click on that result I want to be able to see an alert of that value, that is the email. This is what I have so far, it displays a 0 zero on the alert box as a result
.click(function(event) {
var keyw = jQuery("li").val();
alert(keyw);
$(target(event)).addClass(CLASSES.ACTIVE);
select();
// TODO provide option to avoid setting focus again after selection? useful for cleanup-on-focus
input.focus();
return false;
})
