This plugin lets you provide the user with search suggestions based on the information entered in the search field.

It adds an AJAX call to the search form, returning matches for the current search query from the database. There is no change of template files necessary as this plugin hooks in the existing WordPress API to unfold its magic.

I will be more than happy to update the plugin with new locales, as soon as I receive them! Currently available in:

The plugin doesn't work with my theme. What's wrong?

Make sure your theme's search input field has an id="s" and/or name="s" as in TwentyTen and TwentyEleven. It'll work fine then.
