Autocomplete textbox in visualforce page

Hi,

How to implement autocomplete lookup in visualforce page.
I have come across many links where the autocomplete is shown with standard object. But in my case i need to do with webservice call.
i.e When i start typing in input textbox , after typing atleast 3 characters it should hit the webservice call.


Thanks.

Hi,

If you are open to use some js library, then http://ivaynberg.github.io/select2/ is really very helpful. I have personally used it in one of my application.
