How do I create the animation shown on http://remoteok.io where examples of possible searches are shown and when the user clicks on the search box they disappear and they can input their own query?
Twitter Typeahead.js can be used to implement similar functionality. See https://blog.twitter.com/2013/twitter-typeaheadjs-you-autocomplete-me & https://twitter.github.io/typeahead.js/

I'm trying to use conversejs library to my web project and i added required js files and make it run. But what i wanted to filter contacts. Once i loaded the page filter box is showing just a moment and disappears. I couldn't find how to enable it. When i use the conversejs on conversejs.org it also has no filter box but in https://conversejs.org/tests.html there is a filter box. This is the box I'm talking about
The filter box only appears if there are more contacts than can be shown in the visible area (causing a scrollbar to appear).
I am trying to design a multi-column select/search box as the one shown below.
I thought about using jQuery-UI Autocomplete widget. I will make the list appear in focus so the user can select directly from the list or start typing in the search box to filter the data shown.
I know I can feed the Autocomplete an array of objects as the source and decide a label to be shown as the selected item when the user selects a row.
What I want is to show more than two columns on the list. Any idea how to accomplish that?
thanks,
Use autocomplete renderItem to customize your search results. For multiple column view, use html code in rendering to render table like view. And then use this library to render html in autocomplete UI.
I ended up using typeahead.js from twitter.
Paired with the bloodhound engine it gives the ability to specify costume templates for the list.
I need help and tips on how to implement this feature.
I have a search box. A correct search query could be: Cars in Paris. {category} in {location}.
When the user starts to type the first char a search hint appears for the categories.
The user selects "Car parts" from the hint options.
"[space-key]in[space-key]" are added to the searchbox automatically after the selection of an option.
A new search hint appears for the locations. User chooses Paris.
Do the search after selection the location.
Any tips on how to implement this?
Here's what I'd suggest:
Use jquery UI for auto suggest (very easy to implement, easy to customize to work for your specific situation) http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/. What I'd suggest is to have jQuery check whether the user is typing in a category or location (by seeing if the input is empty) and based on that, run a different autocomplete call.
jQuery UI has an event called 'select'. Use that to add the chosen item + in into the text field.
Now, when the user types in something else, have jQuery recognize that it's time for a location, and call jQuery UI autocompletion to suggest locations.
I am looking for a jQuery plugin that behaves like the Google+ autocomplete + dropdown. In G+, I can enter a person's name and it'll look in my circles and show me a list of matches, or I can click the dropdown arrow at the end of the input box to get a list of all possible names that I can select from. I was able to find plugins that do the autocomplete, but nothing that mixes that with a dropdown functionality to show you all possible names. Any ideas?
You can also try the chosen component.

It's a very nice piece of UI
Try jQueryUI Autocomplete: http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/
I have a list of countries in a database. To allow users to select their country, I would like to implement a form that supports auto-complete / autofill AND "normal dropdown behavior" within one control. By auto-complete / autofill I mean that the user starts typing their country name and then a list of suggestions appears automatically based on what they entered for them to quickly select from - just like how the tags input box on this page works.
Examples can be seen on http://www.momondo.com/ and http://badoo.com/ but I think their script is custom.
Is there an opensource .js plugin for this that's cross-browser friendly?
Thanks.
JQueryUI Autocomplete plugin is what you need http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/
You can find a lot of demos and documentation in the previous link. I hope it helps you!
