Hi,

http://www.cokepubandbar.co.uk/trouble-shooting-guide.html

I have made something like this, and if you would look at the 'Choose a sympton' category, i want to add a search bar. I want this search bar to preform a feature when i search for 'Temperature - drink to warm', i want it to auto populate in the 'Diagnosis' stage just as clicking does. Does anyone have an idea that would lead me in the step direction.

Any suggestions would be grateful :)

It hasn't Chrishirst. I thank you for your previous responses which have been made counter productive. if you read this thread properly you would of realized that.. Im needing to add a search bar in the 'Choose your symptom' section and once searched it opens as per norm- in the 'diagnosis' section.

No i have replicated the exact trouble shooting option but i want to add to the content and add new lines and im afraid there will be alot of new lines/troubleshooting options leaving it in the same frame it will then have a scroll bar. Aand i think it would benfit from a search bar with auto fill so bottom quirys are easyily acessiable.

Chrishirst- this is what i need to be on the website:

AJAX Live Search

How do i excute this on the website below so it will search for only the text in the 'choose a sympton' field.

Click to expand...

See the attached XML file over at W3. Put each symptom in the file and the corresponding URL/ anchor - a little like the following;

PHP: 
<pages>
	<link>
		<title>Carbonation - flat drinks</title>
		<url>#</url>
	</link>

	<link>
		<title>Carbonation - excessive foaming</title>
		<url>#</url>
	</link>
</pages>

Etc. You could even go a step further and name the tags more appropriately - perhaps even nesting the diagnosis and remedies;

PHP: 
<results>
	<symptom>
		<title>Carbonation - flat drinks</title>
		<url>#</url>

		<diagnosis>
			<title>CO2 cylinder valve closed</title>
			<url>#</url>
		</diagnosis>

		<diagnosis>
			<title>CO2 cylinder empty</title>
			<url>#</url>
		</diagnosis>
	</symptom>

	<symptom>
		<title>Carbonation - excessive foaming</title>
		<url>#</url>
	</symptom>
</results>

To use AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript And XML) to search anything requires server side code and a database to return some results from.
