Answer 1

Please, take a look at the resulting HTML code in your browser, probably you are referencing JavaScript files more than once. It is not advised to reference commonly used JavaScript files from views; use your _SiteLayour.cshtml or MVC's "Bundling and minification" feature instead.

Add these to top of your autocomplete code:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.3/themes/excite-bike/jquery-ui.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script src='http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.js'></script>
And add jQuery.noConflict(); to your function:
$(function () {
jQuery.noConflict();
$("#searchText").autocomplete({
source: '#Url.Action("AutoMethod")'
});
