Live search

Journal entry
January 24, 2005

Since XMLHTTPRequest is damn sexy - in that way only geeks can find things sexy - I figured I’d mess around a bit with my search field.

Voila, thanks to Peter Coopers XMLJS and inspiration from Google Suggest, Dunstan Orchard (whose LiveSearch blows mine away, hands down) and others, my search is now hyperactive.

It probably breaks in every browser but Firefox and IE6 (which I’ve tested in), so let me know how it works for you.

Update: It appears to work in Safari too, thanks Patrick.
