Hi,
This is an awesome plugin! But there's a bug in the keyChange function -- it doesn't construct the URL correctly if the URL already contains GET parameters. To fix this, find this line:

$.getJSON(req_string+"?"+opts.queryParam+"="+encodeURIComponent(string)+limit+opts.extraParams, function(data){

And replace it with this:
$.getJSON(req_string, opts.queryParam+"="+encodeURIComponent(string)+limit+opts.extraParams, function(data){

Then jQuery will automatically add either a ? or a & as appropriate.

   I think Drew has a provision for this with the extraParams option.

   So doing something like this is wrong:

      $("#geos").autoSuggest("suggestJson.php?filter=all", {
           queryParam: "keyword",
       }
   

   This is how you should do it

      $("#geos").autoSuggest("suggestJson.php", {
           queryParam: "keyword",
           extraParams: "&filter=all",
       }
