Ryflex Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Hi all, I have a live search which gives as return value the name your looking for minus the letters you already typed in. Is it possible to get the return value in the textfield behind what you already typed. Underneath is my current code. <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function showHint(str) { var xmlhttp; if (str.length==0) { document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=""; return; } if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else {// code for IE6, IE5 xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200) { document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_test.php?q="+str,true); xmlhttp.send(); } </script> </head> <body> <h3>Start typing a name in the input field below:</h3> <form action=""> First name: <input type="text" id="txt1" onkeyup="showHint(this.value)"/> </form> <p>Suggestions: <span id="txtHint"></span></p> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/238351-get-livesearch-in-input-field/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
