Hi Stefan,
I just finished with a project doing exactly what you describe. I
used the scriptaculous framework with a Witango app to pull the data.
Here's a link to the demo and scripts:
http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/autocompleter
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Hi Everyone,
I want to do the simplest possible AJAX function for one of my
clients.
I have never done any AJAX before, so I don't even know where to start
and am hesitant to plunge into the whole topic for this simple
application.
What I am trying to do is as follows:
I have a table with 2500 entries that I would like to put in a pop-
up list,
but it's too many items to be practical. Instead, I would like to
use a small
text field where I would start typing in a few characters, which would
dynamically (AJAX-style) update a separate pop-up list (select field).
I probably wouldn't start populating the list until at least 2
characters
had been typed to keep the list size reasonable.
Has anyone created any simple AJAX already that could give me some
pointers for my application?
Thanks in advance,
Stefan
