Autocomplete only works for onload components

I'm using jquery autocomplete plugin for auto suggestions.

It loads only for the onload elements of the page.

How can I make it work for the elements loaded with jQuery through ajax?

Call $(...).autocomplete(...) (again) after appending the elements e.g. in the success callback of the ajax.

E.g.:

$(...).ajax({
    ...
    success: function(respond) {
        $(...).append(respond); // add new elements
        $(...).autocomplete(...); // add autocomplete to them
    }
    ...
});

P.s.: If you have an autocomplete element onload and only want to change their options, you can use the source parameter of automplete to get the values dynamically (without setting autocomplete again).
