Script-Tutorials.com:
Autocomplete with PHP, jQuery, MySQL and XML
Oct 12, 2011 @ 13:54:40

In this new tutorial from Script-Tutorials.com they show you how to combine PHP, jQuery, MySQL and XML to create an auto-complete box with drop-down suggestions.

Today I have new article for PHP. I will tell you about implementation autocomplete for your sites. Data can be located in different sources - directly in the JS code, in the database, and even in the XML file.

All of the code and markup you'll need is included - the HTML for the page containing the field, CSS to style it, the Javascript (jQuery) to make the field work and the SQL/PHP/XML for the backend. You can check out a live demo of the script in action here or download the source in a single package and get started.

Tiffany Brown's Blog:
Turn text files into pull down menus
Feb 27, 2008 @ 15:35:00

Tiffany Brown shares a quick function she whipped up to create dropdown menus from the contents of a newline separated text file (or files).

I developed this PHP function for a project I'm working on. I'm posting it here in case I need it again, or in case you find it handy.

The function turns each line into an option tag making defining custom menus based on the contents of dynamically-given text files easy.

This could also be easily adapted to create navigations menus at the top of your pages with a few modifications to the HTML tags being used and some CSS to change the look of the list.
