For me this is not enough (I also requested this feature, but have singularly failed to explore what it requires technically). My use case is this... the user goes to the form with a certain 'object X' in mind. They either want to edit the page for that object, or create it if it doesn't exists. So they could search then create / edit with form (somehow). Or 'search' directly from the 'create / edit' box of the form that they know they want to use for the type of object that they have in mind. Having autocomplete on this box would reduce the 'surprise' of finding an object that already exists, and help people to find objects that they want to edit. Just one small use case ;-) > - You can add automatic numbering to (part of) the page name. > - It's easier to standardize naming of pages > - You can have information from the page you're on when you want to > create the page in the page name automatically. > > Would this be a solution for you as well? > > 2009/4/20 Deborah <[email protected]>: >> >> No that does not sound like what I am looking for. >> My users want to see if there is another page similiar to the page >> they want to create. >> Basicly they want to see a list of pages when they are creating a page >> like is shown in an autocomplete field in a form.
