Auto Complete Search Feature in a WordPress Blog!

You've probably heard of (and used) Google Search Suggest and Yahoo Search Assist feature that help you effortlessly find exactly what you’re looking for and even suggest more words to keep the user looking for more. What if you had auto-complete in your WordPress blog?

  • This is a very good feature and increases the user friendlyness of your blog.

  • Great! Thanks for sharing

  • Sorry. I cannot vote for this article.

    Problem with this script is that it loads the entire tag database into a javascript variable and sends the entire thing to the user's browser, whether it is being used or not. As the tag database grows, so does the list. Imagine a tag database with thousands of tags in it, multiplied by an average of 10 or more characters per tag -- not too user friendly (as Mega Champ said.)

  • Well it depends on how you do that tag management in your blog. If its a blog like engadget where tags are used like anything, then this will surely be a problem, but for blogs who are not much high on the tags, this will work fine :-) . Hope it clears my point
