The client-side API is in the form of a JQuery plugin. This plugin includes a list of options and events that allow you to integrate in a few lines of code the functionalities of the DQE Name engine within your website.
Apart from the JQuery Framework and JQuery UI framework, only the jquery.dqefirstname.js JavaScript file is required for the client-side DQE Name API to work. Once this file is included, a simple JQuery call from your first name field is sufficient to activate the auto-completion of first names.
With this call, you will have to pass a mandatory options table containing the URL of your server or the value "jsonp" for direct operation without the server part.
Some parameters for these options are JQuery selectors to fields on your form. For each of these fields and for performance reasons, it is recommended to use ids pointing directly to each field rather than a more complex selector.
