- # Adds AJAX autocomplete functionality to the text input field with the

- #
- # This function expects that the called action returns a HTML <ul> list,
- # or nothing if no entries should be displayed for autocompletion.
- #
- # You'll probably want to turn the browser's built-in autocompletion off,
- # su be sure to include a autocomplete="off" attribute with your text
- # input field.
- #
- # Required +options+ are:
- # <tt>:url</tt>:: Specifies the DOM ID of the element whose
- # innerHTML should be updated with the autocomplete
- # entries returned by XMLHttpRequest.
- #
- # Addtional +options+ are:
- # <tt>:update</tt>:: Specifies the DOM ID of the element whose
- # innerHTML should be updated with the autocomplete
- # entries returned by the AJAX request.
- # Defaults to field_id + '_auto_complete'
- # <tt>:with</tt>:: A JavaScript expression specifying the
- # parameters for the XMLHttpRequest. This defaults
- # to 'fieldname=value'.
- # <tt>:indicator</tt>:: Specifies the DOM ID of an elment which will be
- # displayed while autocomplete is running.
