AutoComplete a text field with DataBase driven results
Hey everyone,
My accounting peeps are wanting to start a form with a textfield that has a database driven autocomplete feature...I'm thinking that they are wanting something like MS Access would have on a datapage where you would start typing say...
AT
and because the first 2 letters match 1 of the entries in the database, then
ATM Outlet
would fill in the rest of the text field.
Is this possible...with CF, Javascript, Ajax??? I really haven't searched a lot and am thinking it could be anywhere
