base836ball Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Hello all, I have a text box that i want users to enter in data. If the data, however, is matching data in the database then how can I have the data show up so the user can select a entry that has already been put in. Example: In my database i have 3 entries, Jims Collision Jakes Paint and Body Sams Auto Now when the user goes to enter data into the text box it will bring all entries up. If he enters a "J" for his first character input then Jims Collision Jakes Paint and Body will show up underneath the textbox only. And if they enter a "S" only Sams Auto will show up underneath the text box. Google has this on their search engine stuff. How does it know what i last searched. Also, Quick books has this as well if you go under "Write a Check". I hope this is enough info, if not let me know. Drew and Thanks!!!!!!!!

matthewjumpsoffbuildings Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 im pretty sure this is an AJAX question - the queries themselves shouldnt be too hard, its just getting them to execute without the page reloading, while the user is typing...
