Drew Wilson AutoSuggest and Ajax

I am trying to get Ajax to work with this plugin.

I have this code;

$.post("/Search/jQuery_GetSkillList", { q:""}, function (jSonData) {
  $("#AutoSuggest").autoSuggest(jSonData, { selectedItemProp: "name", selectedValuesProp: "value", searchObjProps: "name", startText: "Type skills here" });
});

which works fine but the potential items is in the 1,000's so I really need it to work as you type.

So I try this;

$("#AutoSuggest").autoSuggest("/Search/jQuery_GetSkillList", { selectedItemProp: "name", selectedValuesProp: "value", searchObjProps: "name", startText: "Type skills here" });

My controller, in both instances, is being called correctly and it returns the same data.

However, the second code snippet does not render the returned results whereas the first does.

Any ideas?

For those that are interested I found the answer.

I included the un-packed version of the control and located a line that said $.json and made it $.post instead and now the control works very very well.

Thanks to those that spent time on this.
