This is a great module and I want to use it definitely. However, currently, I am trying to create different sorting options for search results and I could not succeed.

The other option is to you the Views 2 Search Exposed Filter. From what I understand, it uses the same mechanism as core drupal search.

Is it possible easily to add another option to the Settings menu to add keyword autucomplete to Views Search Filter (Exposed Filter) ?

Thanks in advance,

I'm currently using a custom keyword field which is a computed field of all the words added from multiple fields of a particular content type. Right now, the way I would do an autocomplete is using the jquery autocomplete script which pulls data from an external php file which has all the list of words generated by the keyword field. This works, except it relies on javascript.

If possible, is there a way to do this with php only pulling keywords straight from database and not from an external file?

My current site which uses this autocomplete is http://gallery.goldlilys-media.com/past_manga/visible.php when you click on search field and start typing letters, autocomplete pops up . Converting entire site to drupal so I'm wondering if there's a module for this?

Hi,

I have developed a simple module that add autocomplete functionality to all HTML fields that you want,
you can try first version (an idea, must be tested very well) here http://drupal.org/node/933490.

Hey all subscribers, this is easily accomplished with a hook_form_alter. You just need to find the search keywords textfield in your exposed form, and then alter it's autocomplete property to use the path provided by this module.

@manatwo would you be so kind of post a sample of the idea?, this would be a great starting point for we non coders while the mentioned module matures....

You would place something this in your custom module (haven't checked this but it's something close). In your view, there is a place to specify the exposed filter has a field to specify the filter identifer, by default it's 'keys.'

function mymodule_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
  if ($form_id == 'views_exposed_form') {
    $form['keys']['#autocomplete_path'] = 'search/keyword-autocomplete';
  }
}

Is there a clear solution to this? The thread link runs out of steam in #22...
