Hi,

I need to customize the combobox widget build from the jQuery UI Autocomplete http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/#combobox

Currently drop down options are predefined from the SELECT tag OPTIONS or from a JSON array.

//getter
var source = $( ".selector" ).autocomplete( "option", "source" );
//setter
$( ".selector" ).autocomplete( "option", "source", ["c++", "java", "php", "coldfusion", "javascript", "asp", "ruby"] );

I want to populate the combobox options from a Ajax URL, how can i customize the widget?
