Twitter typeahead .js file not updating

Question

I am currently in the process of switching form BootsTrap 2.3 to Bootstrap 3.0. As we all know, there is no typeahead in the bootstrap 3.0 so I am using the twitter one: https://github.com/twitter/typeahead.js/

I am able to query but for some reason, the query is not being updated...

Here is the code:

    $('.typeahead').typeahead([
  {
    name: 'users',
    prefetch: '../user/generate-users-typeahead',
    remote: '../user/generate-users-typeahead',
    limit: 5
  },
])

For example, if we start entering Exa there will still be results with the username Admin for example...

Any ideas why it is doing that?

Thanks, Ara

Maybe your localStorage contains "old" data, see also: stackoverflow.com/questions/7667958/clear-localstorage — Bass Jobsen

I am not sure what you mean... I thought the typeahead will automatically clear those?!?!?!? — Ara Sivaneswaran

no it store the data (json) in the localstorage. You could set a ttl for it. Try your code without prefetch. — Bass Jobsen

I tried without the prefecth, it didnt fix it. I'll try and setting a ttl. — Ara Sivaneswaran

Have you tried disabling the cache property for remote since this is using jQuery.ajax() under the hood. — Pricey
