Guys,

Thank you so much for your help. You really make a difference in somebody's live with the fast and educated replies. Thank you all again.

For the next person who comes across this problem ...

Inside jquery.autocomplete.js

Change

Code:

$.ajax({mode: "abort",
    port: "autocomplete" + input.name,
    dataType: options.dataType,
    url: options.url,
    data: $.extend({
    q: lastWord(term),
    limit: options.max
    }, extraParams),
    success: function(data) {
    var parsed = options.parse && options.parse(data) || parse(data);
               cache.add(term, parsed);
             success(term, parsed);
                }
});

to this ...

Code:

$.ajax({type: "post",
        mode: "abort",
    port: "autocomplete" + input.name,
    dataType: options.dataType,
    url: options.url,
    data: $.extend({
    q: lastWord(term),
    limit: options.max
    }, extraParams),
    success: function(data) {
    var parsed = options.parse && options.parse(data) || parse(data);
               cache.add(term, parsed);
             success(term, parsed);
                }
});

Then in your controller, change ....

Code:

$q = strtolower($_GET["q"]);

to

Code:

$q = strtolower($_POST["q"]);
