jQuery UI AutomComplete-请求中止

Question

I noticed that jQuery UI Auto-Complete will "abort" some HTTP requests if user is typing fast. Will those request still hit the service? If it is, is there anyway to reduce the requests being send besides setting delay or minimum typed in letter?

Answer 1

Yes, is possible by setting delay on your autocomplete definition.

$( ".selector" ).autocomplete({ delay: 500 });

The delay in milliseconds between when a keystroke occurs and when a search is performed. A zero-delay makes sense for local data (more responsive), but can produce a lot of load for remote data, while being less responsive.
