Autocomplete using jquery or javascript

Question

can someone recommand a good autocomplete or autosuggest that uses javascript or jquery? I want it to be fast and with no ajax.

Thanks.

Interestingly HTML5 provides a "local autocomplete" facility using the <datalist> element. — Neil

The jQuery Autocomplete plugin allows you to use either Ajax OR a locally-defined data set (no ajax).

It's best to Use the jquery UI built in Autocomplete Widget. http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/

The good part is, all jquery scripts can be loaded from google CDN. No extra load on your server.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.9/themes/base/jquery-ui.css" type="text/css" media="all" /> 
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.5.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.9/jquery-ui.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
