aclab Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I'm looking to integrate something similar to Facebook's URL recogntion (where you type the url and it automatically retrieves the meta content to show the title, address and description). Endless google searches haven't been helping as the words are too generic! Any ideas or pointers on how to go about doing this? I'm thinking a some javascript to keep checking the content of the textarea to scan for www.something.com but I'm not sure how to get ajax to request the meta (also notice that facebook shows images too which is a nice touch)... Any thoughts??x Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/173756-facebooks-url-recognition-when-posting/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I'm not sure what your talking about exactly in relation to facebook but it sounds like your describing what is commonly known as auto suggest. If you google jQuery auto suggest you should find quite a few examples.

jkewlo Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Ahh your talking like when you insert the domain name google.com it shows the image and the basic information on the page itself as if you did phpfreaks.com it will show.. LOGO and then the first few line of the content on the page?
