You can find the official documentation here.

Jquery ajax – Ajax Autocomplete filling up both input fierlds witth same value, although I have implemented both functions separately with different logic

I have 2 input fields

  1. Student Name Input Field
  2. Group Name Input Field

I have implemented 2 different ajax logic to fetch list of students and groups for autocomplete in textboxes separately in different tag.

But when I click one value from any autocomplete value either student list or group list, both input fields are being filled up with selected value

Both fields are filling up

Code for fetch Student (JavaScript) :

<script>
        $(document).ready(function()
        {
            $("#studentname").keyup(function()
            {
                var studentName = $(this).val();
                if(studentName != '')
                {
                    $.ajax({
                       url: "SearchStudent.php",
                       method: "POST",
                       data:{studentName:studentName},
                       success: function(data)
                       {
                           $('#students').fadeIn();
                           $('#students').html(data);
                       }
                    });
                }
                else
                {
                    $('#students').fadeOut();
                    $('#students').html("");
                }
            });
            $(document).on('click','li',function()
            {
               $('#studentname').val($(this).text());
               $('#students').fadeOut();
            });
        });
    </script>

Code for Fetch Group (JavaScript):

                       data:{groupName:groupName},
                       success: function(Groupdata)
                       {
                           $('#groups').fadeIn();
                           $('#groups').html(Groupdata);
                       }
                    });
                }
                else

               $('#groups').fadeOut();
            });
        });
    </script>

    The following two blocks are your problem, they both respond to a click on any li

            $(document).on('click','li',function()
        {
           $('#studentname').val($(this).text());
           $('#students').fadeOut();
        });


        $(document).on('click','li',function()
        {
           $('#groupname').val($(this).text());
           $('#groups').fadeOut();
        });

    You need to adjust your selectors to target the respective lists as follows:

            $(document).on('click','#students li',function()
        {
           $('#studentname').val($(this).text());
           $('#students').fadeOut();
        });


        $(document).on('click','#groups li',function()
        {
           $('#groupname').val($(this).text());
           $('#groups').fadeOut();
        });

    Or like this:

            $('#students').on('click','li',function()
        {
           $('#studentname').val($(this).text());
           $('#students').fadeOut();
        });


        $('#groups').on('click','li',function()
        {
           $('#groupname').val($(this).text());
           $('#groups').fadeOut();
        });

    You selectors are not specific enough in your “on” functions. Try:

    $(document).on('click', '#students li', function(){
    $('#studentname').val($(this).text());
    $('#students').fadeOut();
});

    and:

    $(document).on('click', '#groups li', function(){
    $('#groupname').val($(this).text());
    $('#groups').fadeOut();
});

    instead. Hope this helps. Cheers.
