I know I could roll my own (I have done my share of ajax), but at a certain level it seems like a waste of time if someone else has already packaged it into something that frees me from having to write boilerplate JavaScript code. It's even better if it's a suite of tools that use a similar approach, so I don't have to learn a new API for each component. I guess I should have been more specific. Thanks for the url, I'll evaluate it.

What they're doing is just ajax. There are dozens of javascript libraries out there that make it fairly simple to do ajax. If you're a developer, you could roll out your own solution fairly quickly with a javascript library like jquery <http://jquery.com/>. Googling "ajax autosuggest search" found one promising solution: http://www.brandspankingnew.net/archive/2007/02/ajax_auto_suggest_v2.html <http://www.brandspankingnew.net/archive/2007/02/ajax_auto_suggest_v2.html>

    At work I develop web applications using ASP.Net, and we recently
    purchased the obout suite of web components (http://www.obout.com/).

    For my personal development, I currently use PHP, mostly because
    that's
    what my hosting provider supplies.  Does anyone know of any web
    components like these (preferably open source) that work with
    PHP?  The
    one I am most interested in initially is the autosuggest combobox
    ( http://www.obout.com/combobox/ex_autosuggest.aspx).
