Multiple Scriptaculous Autocomplete Fields

2009-09-03T12:00:00.000-07:00

Hi,

I was recently searching for a means to have multiple text boxes using the Scriptaculous autocomplete control. I was unable to find any solutions so I decided to develop one and here it is.

Demo: http://digitalheights.com/autocomplete/

For those who have not used autocomplete before, here is the article I found and based my demo on:

But for those who have, and are interested in seeing how this works, you can download the source code here:

Now this is a fun little gadget!! It's not a phone, it's not a PDA, it is a tiny internet tablet. Tiny but boasts an 800x480 px screen(4.25 inches diagonally), uses a Mozilla based browser and comes loaded with plenty of decent apps. I upgraded the OS to OS2008 (a mini version of Linux). So now I just wait for the world to be fully Wireless - with free hotspots everywhere! LOL

Where to start...

So many new and wonderful tools out there to try out but there never seems to be enough time. I downloaded SilverStripe CMS and think this is going to be quite amazing. I am slowly rebuilding one site using it and once it is finished I will post a link to it. What I really want to explore is its extendibility. I have a ton of PHP Classes I have written over the years and would like to see how these could be added to SilverStripe.
