    Hi
    I was upgrading a website from CF 8 to CF 9 and i encountered a problem with autosuggest option in the form field. The problem is explained below

    in coldfusion 8 in one of the form field if we type either a number or alphabet it will suggest the rest of the entries from the Data base.But it since i have upgraded to COLDFUSION 9, the auto suggestion works only for numbers and its not working with alphabets. When i used firebug to investigate the problem,it seems like i am getting the response with the alphabets, but its not getting displayed.

    Below given is the code for the application

    <cfinput type="text" name="institution_name" maxResultsDisplayed ="30" autosuggest="cfc:#module.cfc#/#here#.getInstitutionList({ticket_category_code},'#user_login#',{cfautosuggestvalue})" size="50" value="#attributes.institution_name#">
