Javascript for drop-down lists

I'm after a bit of JS that mimics the effect of Windows Explorer, where
you quickly type, say, the first three letters of a filename and the
first file that starts with those three letters is selected.

I know putting focus on an html drop-down list and typing a letter takes
you to the first entry that starts with that letter, but typing a second
letter doesn't refine the selection, it just takes you to the first
entry that starts with that letter.

Anyone know of anything ready-built that does this? I'm thinking it
wouldn't be too difficult to write, but would probably struggle with the
timer aspect.


Thanking you.
