The first Ajax-based page is now up and running! Marvellous.
It's a skill-picker for a series of rpg events run in the UK, and this is designed to extend the booking system written by a good friend. Instead of merely typing in a list of the skills that a character has, this script lets a user type in a few characters from the skill's name, and the server then returns suggestions of the skill that was intended.
In a nutshell, this is Google Suggest done all over again. But by me. ;)
Currently the system generates and refreshes a list of buttons with the skill names on, and adds any skills clicked on to a list. (Edit: and now looks just a little bit more professional, keeps easy track of how many selections you've made, and clears the text and suggestions whenever you add a new skill to the list.)
Next elements of the project will include database interactivity: i.e.: it'll pull the information out from a database, and use that to generate help pages on the fly.
The page can currently be found at this location.
