    Hi 1. Capture the key press event in javascript. 2. Using AJAX( go for XMLHTTP object of browser) sent the character you have pressed to the AJAX file(AJAX engine) 3. Get the result as string with some delimeter in it. 4. Separate the result 5. Show results in a DIV with proper style. example: Suppose you have typed 'a' using AJAX you may send a HTTP get request like this http://loclhost/AJAXFile.aspx?char=a to get a result string this way ... 'aasha|abbas|arindam|asif' Now manipulate this string using Javascript and build a DIV to display this resultset. Hope this helps ...

    Thanks, Arindam D Tewary

          sorry guys if it was not helpful .. but what I have suggested is a good option if the values to be populated dynamically from the server. Anyone can point out for a better way !!!! Indeed a bit javascript is enough if the set of values to be populated(on key press event) is static and if can be stored in client side( preferebly in an array). Any feedback would be appreciated !!!! :laugh:

            Yeah, the AJAX thing will work, but it does smell like potential overkill, especially if the values are known when the app starts, and if he just wants to get the alphabet back.

                  It was a kidding. :-> JavaScript will serve that purpose. It is simple and it is the right way

                    The best thing is to write "the solution" here in the forum !!! Only a single line (what you have adviced me now) could have been enough ... lets put the possible solution together here .... and lets allow the person to choose the best one ... What do you feel ?;P
