Autocomeplete Search

To add auto comeplete functionality to the search box you must include jquery and a plugin.

In  this  example  we have used jQuery UI Autocomplete .

In the layout we have checked for GET param ajax and if set then we have return the results in json.

On the  page we  have included js to bind the textbox to autocomplete  with source as the same page with GET param ajax set.
