Hi,

I am using editable dropdown for searching or selecting records.

This will be working fine if we have less number of records (for example < 100 records).

if we have more than 1 million records, then it will not populate anything and it got struct.

i am using asp.net dropdown with autocomplete jQuery.

How to solve this problem.?

sample code attached.
