Instant name checking/showing using Ajax/Jquery

[jeevanism]

The case scenario is like I have to check all available usernames/names from the databases whenever I type the letters instanly.

For example:- When type "je" in the userfield, it should show all combination of names starting with "je" inline. I am attaching a picture as sample.

Its indian railway website, where I type name of the train like "ka", it will show all names matching with it inline.

Try the following:

On first key stroke get all names from the database that have the first character the same as the one typed and store into a javascript array.
On every key stroke after the first, filter the array rather than calling the database again.

If you are looking for code, just look up how to call a webservice using javascript. If you are using ASP.Net, look at using page methods.

I will do that, in the mean time, is there any script available to make feature like Google instant search. I think both are same feature right?

search in google for JQUERY-UI,
