Autocomplete search component

[keehwan1]

Hello,

I am trying to create a search component that retrieves data from under certain node(s)  in aem using an ajax call.

I need the search to pull names for example in search box  when I type.

When I type 2 or 3 letters it should show me results in search box.

What I am looking for now is any example aem docs or information.

Thanks in advance,

Keehwan

The out of the box search component does not support this. To achieve this functionality, you would need to use a JQuery plug-in that supports this - something like:
