Autocomplete using javascript and jsp

Apr 20th, 2006

hi all,

here I'm having a problem, When u type a letter on the textbox it shoud display the remaining or matched name from the database, on or below the text box.It is named as (autocomplete).I searched on popular search engines but coul'd find the solution.
If any of you familiar with this concept please suggest me how to do.

I'm using jsp and mysql database.

Thanks in advance,

Techkar.

If I'm not mistaking, you may be refering to AJAX, which is a language that you may deem difficult. Otherwise, you will have to use javascript to start a function that will hit the database every click of a letter.
