Autocomplete documentation wrong

[cguilhermef]

About source function, was described the "function" parameter :

A request object, with a single term property, which refers to the value currently in the text input. For example, if the user enters "new yo" in a city field, the Autocomplete term will equal "new yo".

but this property doesn't exist anymore. The request object is the term typed by user.

The same to "select" event:

select:function(event,ui){} where ui parameter comes undefined. And, "event" becomes "ui" without the "item" property - just ui.value and ui.label - no anymore ui.item.label ui.item.value

It sounds to me like you're not using jQuery UI.

I'm sure that I'm using jQuery UI Autocomplete plugin and documentation is wrong or not updated.

http://api.jqueryui.com/autocomplete/#option-source

I highly doubt that, but you can prove it with a reduced test case.

[cguilhermef]

autocomplete({
source: function(request, response) {
//request.term return undfined. but just "request" return the typed terms
},
select:function(event, ui){
// ui is undefined
// event doesn't is an Event but an Object - old ui.item
}
});

That's not really helpful. But to prove my point: http://jsbin.com/nesumujisa/1/
