Hi,

I've my data in SQL database. My requirement is to search the fields based on keywords column. However, I want to implement search in such a way that, if I type few characters it should start showing the results based on the characters entered.

Please suggest which way would be more effective, AJAX or using jQuery? Also, please guide me through how it can be done.

The search here (Tags) is implemented this way.

Thanks in advance!!

Cheers

There is no comparison here - AJAX or jQuery.

AJAX is a technique to talk to server from client side and jQuery facilitates this technique.
Here: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/[^]
Go ahead with AJAX implementation using jQuery and get your search result.

Hi,

Thanks for the comment. Can you please give a brief how do I do that using jQuery. I'm new to jQuery.

Thanks in advance.

There are lots of articles on jQuery on web infact here at CodeProject itself. Pick few, go through them and learn. Try out.
