Thanks for the reply Michael. Ill definitely try that out and let you know how it goes. Your solution sounds similar to the one I've read here: http://www.lucidimagination.com/blog/2009/09/08/auto-suggest-from-popular-queries-using-edgengrams/
There are some good comments in there too. I think I am having the biggest trouble distinguishing what needs to be done for autocomplete/autosuggestion (google like behavior) and a separate issue involving spellchecking (Did you mean...). I guess I originally thought those 2 distinct features would involve the same solution but it appears that they are completely different. Your solution sounds like its works best for autocomplete and I will be using it for that exact purpose ;) One question though... how do you handle more popular words/documents over others? Now my next question is, how would I get spellchecker to work with phrases. So if I typed "vitton" it would come back with something like: "Did you mean: 'Louis Vuitton'?" Will this also require a combination of ngrams and shingles?
