Can any one please explain me how google instant search is working??
if am using google as search engine it will automatically show some suggections before completing the word while am searching . How its working??

It's making an ajax call to a server method, internally it's doing some sort of matching based on popular searches or combinations of words in order to suggest likely words.

The 'Auto Complete' section is straightforward enough....you can accomplish the same using something like jquery autocomplete (http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/[^]) or similar.

nice example my 5.
It’s a well known feature of Google. Start typing in a search, and Google offers suggestions before you’ve even finished typing.
