roopurt18 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 You need to use Javascript to update the page as you type. It is possible to create every possible permutation of your data and feed it to the Javascript upon the initial page load. However, it is extremely inefficient to do so. Almost every site that has auto-suggestion type features uses XHR in Javascript. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
