that might be a problem, cuz u see, the only way a browser updates itself is
by refreshing. outlook is an application, so things just show up as
pressed. but here is the way to do it, but i do not recommend it, and i
will give an alternative solution. in the search field, have it call a
javascript for everytime you press a letter, and pass that letter to
coldfusion to do a select statement "where WHATEVER = '#letter#%'", and the
page refreshes with the new data.
instead, you should have the user press a submit button or an enter key
instead. teehee. thats the alternative solution. I mean who wants the
page to refresh everytime they press a letter. that's horrible and time
consuming! arghhH!!!
