Autocomplete - would be nice. about whoogle-search HOT 4 CLOSED

AFAIK, there isn't an open source search autocomplete library out there. This would require paying a company for access to their autocomplete API, which isn't a feasible addition to the project since instances are primarily self hosted. If someone knows of an alternative and comes across this issue, feel free to reopen.

Might be worth a look ;) Doesn't look that complex but then I can't program.

@benbusby @gripped This uses Google API.
However, Ben I don't see it being limited or found that it is a paid service.

The Google Maps Autocomplete Search is, we are not using Maps.

Thank you gripped, this might be just what we needed, as I am not a javascript developer I will not try implementing this feature unless there is no one else to do it then I will come up with something.
