I've been working on this for a while today. I added the functionality Cliff requested, works like a charm. So now you can get all your data via xml or json or whatever, create a nested list and then call the finder function on that list to create a finder.
I haven't uploaded this yet, I will in the following couple of days. I want to use jquery 1.3 for this plugin as it will save me a few lines of code, especially the closest function. Since I'm going to be doing this I figured to also make use of the themeroller and make it theme-able. Any suggestions on how to best tackle this? Are there any special requirements? Any jQuery UI people around here?
