Known Issues
Double click in search field - still not fixed.

Installation:
Upload all files from folder upload to forum folder.
Import product.

Upgrade
Uninstall the old version, delete files (if you has use it) and install new version.

If you already have opened search field, do following.
Search field look like this:

So, after the opening tag <form ХХХ> add bottom:

Before the closing tag </form> add:

We have prepared the search form to pop-up window. Now we need to bind to the field of javascript.
For this in tag <input type="text" /> add id="lsa_input"
As a result, you should get some of this code:

P.S. If you already have id in your search field and its change may be possible to reset the anchor CSS, do the following.
Open the template lsa_script and edit the line

var lsa = new AJAX_LiveSearch_Prepare("lsa", "lsa_input", "lsa_window");

where the arguments of the class:
lsa - variable name initialize class js
lsa_input - search field id
lsa_window - pop-up window id

Thus, changing the arguments of the class AJAX_LiveSearch_Prepare, you can not edit the search field.

Great Hack ,

thanks

thanks good work.. I will do it soon.. ASAP

can you do the same as: http://www.thienduongnhac.com/forum/index.php where the results appear below navbar instead of a popup?

awesome hack .. does this add any queries or slow down the server in any way ..

ajax :eek:

Let me know when this works with the standard search in navbar, I would love that.

At the moment, I get some kinda browser error when I try to install it into navbar vb search.

It does work well though if I have a standalone live search below navbar.

hopefully vb4 will take something like this on and improve upon it.

thanks ,
very nice ,

thanks :)

vietfancy, this is not hard, but i think that disappearing window is better:)
lazyindian, i have installed this hack on 2 and more forums and no one went to work slowly and do not get down. In any case, you can disable it work for certain groups in settings
smirkley, i will try but not promise:)
