im a total noob to jquery but i wat to search feature like on facebook
ive found a plugin that says it does this but cant figure out how to
get it to work please help
start off as in the demo shown it is :
[code]
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js";></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/
plugins/autocomplete/demo/main.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/
plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/
plugins/autocomplete/lib/jquery.bgiframe.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/
plugins/autocomplete/lib/jquery.dimensions.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/
plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var data = "Core Selectors Attributes Traversing Manipulation CSS
Events Effects Ajax Utilities".split(" ");
$("#example").autocomplete(data);
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
API Reference: <input id="example" /> (try "C" or "E")
</body>
</html>
[/code]
and then i added the search feature (http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/
Autocomplete#Search_Page_Replacement)
[code]
var data = [ {text:'Link A', url:'/page1'}, {text:'Link B', url: '/
page2'} ];
$("...").autocomplete(data, {
formatItem: function(item) {
return item.text;
}
}).result(function(event, item) {
location.href = item.url;
});
[/code]
=
