Hi!
I am looking into some kind of clever way to speed up formhandling of intense datainput forms.
I have an application that is connected to a MySQL db and I want to speed up the process of entering infomration into my databases. I have used Access before, where I had a smart input box, which "sensed" what I was writing and from the database pulled out the right alternatives, so the user didnt had to write the whole string. An example ..
I have an input field asking for the typf object. Objects already entered in the db are "Bear" and "Belt". now when the I wanna enter a new object into the Db, I would like to have the input field react to what I enter, character by character. When I press B, it will display "Bear", and when I get to the l, it will display "Belt" as that is what it matches with.
I was suggested to do a mix with Javascript and traditiona PhP/Db coding to solve this, but I was wondering if there is any cool soloution to this in plain PhP?
