Updates on jQuery Ajax ComboBox ASP.NET MVC Helper

Added string-based name on the helpers.

Download the code from: http://code.google.com/p/ienablemuch-jquery-ajax-combobox-aspnetmvc/downloads/list

Get the demo code at: http://code.google.com/p/jquery-ajax-combobox-aspnet-mvc-helper/downloads/list

Example:

@Html.AjaxComboBox("CategoryId", 
    "/Category/Lookup",
    "/Category/Caption",
    new { style = "width: 300px " },
    new { sub_info = true })

Nothing was changed on strongly-typed helpers, it's still the preferred way:

@Html.AjaxComboBoxFor(model => model.CategoryId,
  "/Category/Lookup",
  "/Category/Caption",
  new { style = "width: 300px " },
  new { sub_info = true })
