If you want the extraParams passed to your data url to include other
form input values then you need to define the values as a function.
In that function use jquery to get the values of the other inputs.
$("#addressCity").autocomplete('http://www.example.com/api/
getcities/', {
minChars: 1,
autoFill:false,
extraParams: {
country: function() {
return $('#country').val();
},
region: function() {
return $('#region').val();
}
}
});
In this example the other input box IDs were 'country' and 'region'.
Both which need to filter the list of cities.
