[RESOLVED] immediate search and display problem

[alexks]

Hello,
I have two problems to code.

I.
When a user enters a letter in a text box, all words from rows of a table beginning with that letter appear as possible choices.

II. When a user enters a word in a text box, all rows of table containing that words appear as possible choices.

I appreciate if someone gives me some references on coding these problems in php.

Thanks in advance.

rows of a database table?

[alexks]

Yes. Rows from a table that is in a MySql database.

Isn't that the point? To have it display suggestions of closely related phrasing? If it's too long try either a limit on the query or using pagination.

[alexks]

That is the point and it is not too long. Simply, I do not know how to code it. What is the pagination?

what u want is similar to google suggest and other suggest features showing up on the web...

it makes use of javascript and PHP together

id start googling for 'google suggest ajax' examples... pagination has no place here
