I love the fact that you still use my birds example :-)
(I wrote autocomplete for the form on www.waarneming.nl, a Dutch site for nature sightings, and I used a dump of our English and Latin bird names to fill search.php). On 4/15/07, Jörn Zaefferer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi folks, for anyone interested in the progess of the autocomplete plugin I've uploaded the current demo: http://jquery.bassistance.de/autocomplete/ There are already a few notable improvements: * completeting multiple values works much better, whitespace is ignored and cleaned up whenever necessary * the search term is highlighted in the select box * select box can be closed with esc key * use dimensions plugin to calculate offset of input element, providing a tons more robust calculation even in complex layouts These items are still on the todo list: * pass plain data to result handler instead of expanded dom element, maybe add reference to input * allow modification of not-last value in multiple-fields * add support for multiple fields for findValue/result-event * add proper example for completing multiple values and updating related ids to a hidden field * modify demo to work with a proper form, no always-prevent-submit! * add a callback to allow decoding the response Your feedback, especially about usability issues, is very welcome. Just keep in mind that this isn't anywhere near production-ready and a few API changes are on their way. -- Jörn Zaefferer http://bassistance.de
