Hi there

Is there any module that includes a suggestive search feature - suggesting keywords as the viewer types in their search (like on Yahoo)?

Thanks!

Thanks a lot irmtfan!

I've uploaded the articles module and tried to figure out how to get the suggestive search but can't see how to get it working.

Can you tell me how I can enable it?

Is there somewhere I can input a list of terms that I want to be used for the suggestive search?

Thanks again!

Bump! Does anyone know of any way to do this?

Is there any module that can record all searches made and then use that record to give users search suggestions?

I know isearch can do the first part but don't think it can do the second

So if searches have been made for 'bananas', 'bandages' and 'bank', when another user types in 'ban' they will get the 3 suggestions but when they've typed 'band' they will only have bandages as a suggestion.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks a lot for any answers, ideas or guesses!

I've found the answer

I must have searched a dozen times for this but after making today's post the phrase 'auto-complete' came to mind so i searched for that instead of 'suggestive search' and there it was..

smart2 has done a great hack of isearch to do exactly this - many thanks smart2, its really appreciated!!!

You can find it here:
