In this post Asp.Net jQuery
UI Autocomplete minLength we shall see on how to use
the minLength property to control the behavior of the Autocomplete control.
The
minLength property determines the number of characters to be entered by the
user, before displaying the Autocomplete options, the default value of
minLength is 1, we can alter this as per our needs.
Create an .aspx page, add a TextBox to the page and add the below jQuery script. Change the references of the jQuery library files to map to your local path. Build and run the application. Notice that the Autocomplete options get displayed only when you enter a min of 2 characters in the testbox.
