It's called Autocomplete.

Subject: [jQuery] I saw it somewhere...


For the last hour I have be scouring through jQuery tutorial and plugins
pages trying to find something that I thought I saw.  I did a search in the
list archive to no avail.  I'm looking for an example I saw of a form with
input elements with suggestions of what should be placed inside.  This
would not be a popup tooltip, but something that appears in the element
already.  I can do this by brute force, I was just hoping to find the more
elegant approach.

If anyone can decipher what I'm looking for and you know where it is, can
you point me to it?

Thanks.

Autocomplete isn't what I had in mind.  I'm thinking instead of having
something in place of a label for the field.  In this case, the user is
going to upload a document and give the document a title in another input
box.  I was thinking of saying Enter desired title.  I could just do a
simple label, but

 You may have this in mind:

 It was my first attempt at a JQuery plugin, and it shows.  It would be
 pretty easy to clean up, though.
