Hi!

I'd like to get autocomplete options on a custom field found on a salesforce standard page layout.

following http://jungleeforce.wordpress.com/2013/05/05/using-jquerys-autocomplete-in-salesforce-part-1/ , i've been able to obtain autocomplete options on a VisualForce page. 

I've tried replicating this for a standard page layout by using a homepage component.

So far, i've been obtained to get the id of  the field and i've replicated the code for the home page component with some tweaks.

	<script type='text/javascript' href='/resource/jquery182'></script>
	<script type='text/javascript' href='/resource/jqueryUI'></script>
	<script type="text/javascript">
        //Create a new variable j$ just to avoid any conflicts with other libraries which may be using $.
        var j$ = jQuery.noConflict();
        //Capture the list of countries in a Array.
        var countryArray = ['India', 'USA', 'China','FInland','Norway','Netherlands','England','Ukraine','Russia','Japan','Korea','Burma','Srilanka','Iran','Iceland','Canada','Rome','Australia','Armenia','Albania','Afghanisthan'];
        //on Document ready
        j$(document).ready(function(){
            j$("#00Ni0000009IWjG").autocomplete({
                source : countryArray
            });
        });
    </script>

i don't  get any error, but i've observed that 

 j$(document).ready(function() 

does not work. Actually 

 var j$ = jQuery.noConflict();

also does not work.

so, my question is ,Can i use Document.ready() in  a javascript on a standard page layout? is that even possible?

Thank you
