Hi Michael, There is an autocompleter component in Alien::GvaScript -- see http://search.cpan.org/~DAMI/Alien-GvaScript/lib/Alien/GvaScript/AutoCompleter.pod This is perhaps more complex than other libraries, but it has many options (strict/non-strict, case sensitive or not, autosuggest, multivalued, typeAhead, etc.) This is pure javascript, so it should work well together with FormBuilder; you will need to declare the Autocompleter object in the HTML head, and then add an 'onfocus' attribute on the field(s) to be autocompleted. You will also need to setup your datasources for autocompletion, which can be either inline objects in your page, or some controllers in your app that return JSON data.
