Wow - thie jQuery section of the forum surely appears dead - no posts since Oct 1st - hope someone reads this!!
At any rate - with jQuery it's become common for me to download objects of data and stash them somewhere in the DOM and then re-use them for auto-completes or dropdowns or slickgrid sources.
I've got experience doing 2000 names in an auto-complete drop down - which means I stored all that data somewhere in the page for use as the page ajaxes away.
How about doing 30,000 names in an auto-complete? I'm not concerned about the speed of the auto-complete - really worried about the available storage space in the browser apps out there and wondering if anyone has pushed a large amount to a browser and found a "breaking point" so to say.
Thanks!
