Im quite new to ajax, downloaded the autocomplete extension. The option of pulling data from a database is unavailable, what should I do before this option becomes available?

Hi Brian,

In order to use <b>Generate autocomplete from database</b> option, you should have defined connection for your site.
To define connection, try the following:
1. Open the Databases panel (Window &gt; Databases)
2. Click the Plus (+) button on the panel and choose Custom Connection String
3. In the dialog box, enter a name for the new connection, without spaces or special characters. And enter the connection string for your database.

<b>NOTES:</b>
Currently, the option <b>Generate autocomplete from database</b> can be used only on sites defined for PHP and ASP VBScript server-side technologies.

Regards,

Georgi Kralev
