this is good but not the best, your autocomplete has the basic flaw that when the user presses enter, it submits the page or if he presses tab the word remains incomplete. Somehoe or other u shud allow the user to type 2 letters of a 10 letter word and so that user dont need to type the rest to keep the text in the textbox. good luck !!!

Browsing the asp.net website I found this autocomplete control which is exactly like facebook. Someone extended the ajaxtoolkit control to make it function exactly like facebook.

This is the persons blog.

This is where I found it.

okay.. so I took what you made.. and I took code from a pure javascript textbox.. and I created my own based on the style of facebook's.

let me know what you think..

Also, just so you know, OnTimeOut is not used anymore. The timeout is combined in the OnError. Check out this page for more details:

Dan,

I followed your steps and the autocomplete textbox is working correctly.

The dictionary that I have given in the example is not sorted. In my example, I am sorting the array before finding the next word. Hope this helps.

typing in Apple the first time works..

BUT

if you type in Apple, then backspace 5 times, and type in apple again, and repeat this process, you get some strange results.

I've been trying to find a perfect autocomplete solution. I found one, (which ISN'T AJAX) which is close to facebook's but it uses a static list. I'm going to try to combine that solution, with your AJAX one, and hopefully it is the best of both worlds.

I checked out your demo.. try typing apple.. the second the 1 appears, it changes what I typed to a10.. also it took me 3 times to be able to type beer..

Facebook's autocomplete textbox is one of the best I've ever seen.. perhaps you should model your after that one..
