I want to download the jquery autocomplete plugin, but it does not allow to load only this file, but with the core jquery, jquery position, widget, etc. scripts. But I do not want all these files to be already added to my project and work fine, so I do not want to break the current working logic.
When I tried to put the whole script with autocomplete (including core.js), it worked, but then my finifier stops working.
I also tried to select and add only the autocomplete part of the script from the full script, but that didnβt work, maybe because I am using jquery 1.7.2 and I found autocomplete 1.10.2.
Is there a way to get only the autocomplete plugin or any similar plugin that can work, how do we get other plugins from external authors?
Basically, my requirement is not completely autocomplete, I want the text field that is in focus to display a list of options that can be selected, something like drop-down list options, and also allows us to put our own value and not show the drop-down arrow list. I did all this while working with the autocomplete plugin, a problem arose when I tried to add it to my project.
This is basically a requirement

Any idea what I can do?
