/*
 * The following code is a jquery extention written to add autocomplete functionality to bootstrap input groups.
 * 
 * Usage:
 * 
 * Then simply call $('.someClass').autoComplete(getSuggestions) on it to enable auto completion.
 * 
 * getSuggestions returns by calling its callback parameter with an array of valid strings.
 * 
 * Autocomplete can be manually triggered by triggering the autoComplete event.
