Efficient AutoSuggest with jQuery?

Question

I\'m working to build a jQuery AutoSuggest plugin, inspired by Apple\'s spotlight.

Here is the general code:

$(document).ready(function() { 
$(\'#q\').         


        

Answer 1

I don't know, what DB are you using OR are you using hardcoded file!?

anyway a good starting point is wait for a least a TOT NUMS of chars for

es.: after 3 ( that is a min word lenght for search mysql in most cases ) chars then you can start to search your DB or json file!

I think you must give to PHP or others the hard job like FILTERING etc, etc.. before send back the responce!

btw i think one of the best AutoSuggest is the one from brandspankingnew
