Auto Suggestions with a Drop-List Box

This page contains a different (dropdown) version of the AutoSuggest sample from also integrated with Jaxcent.

The text below, again, is from the original webreference.com website, and the suggestions are coming from the server via Jaxcent.

As with the previous example, type a state name into the textbox below. Make sure the state name begins with a capital letter. The best example is still "Missouri".

Try it for yourself:

Again, the change simply involves sending off the JavaScript call to Jaxcent, and to let the Java code provide the suggestions. Similar Java code at the server is providing the list of suggestions.

Note: Minor improvements - not Jaxcent-related - have been made to autosuggest2.js and autosuggest.cs. If you are using this auto-suggest feature in your programs, you may want to download these two files from here.
