Hello all, I'm in the process of adding some AJAX sugar to C::A::Search and wanted to throw out my initial ideas and also see what others would like to have as well. I'm planning on adding the following:
+ No page reload for results. After pressing the 'submit' button (or one of the page links) a page will not be reloaded, but the new results will simply be shown below. This should actually speed things up, especially on sites that have some dynamic stuff happening in navs and sidebars. + Auto-Complete/Suggest search field. As the user types they will see suggestions of what to search for (similar to Google suggest and other apps). Now, how do people want the Auto-Complete field to work? Should it suggest words that are known to be in the documents indexed? Should it just show phrases that this user has previously searched for (most browsers do this anyway)? Should it suggest phrases that other people have previously searched for? Or should it not care, but rather be pointed to a datasource of words/phrases to use and not care where it came from. Also, more architectural, should the AJAX niceness be configurable within C::A::Search, or should a separate C::A::Search::AJAX module exist (probably within the same distro) so that developers aren't confused?
