autocomplete a sentence via jQuery autocomplete

[Will Kriski]

I'm trying to set up autocomplete for a sentence (multiple words). Here's the jsfiddle which is partially working. http://jsfiddle.net/willkriski/F27ZK/

I'd like the down arrow and tab (to select words) to work, then add a space as it does now after selecting a word, but to allow for multiple words. Right now it doesn't work for more than one word. I tried adjusting the jquery example but I'm a little lost with directives :)

Also if I could add words to the array if one isn't found (to build up a vocabulary of used words), triggered on the space bar that would be great too. Or possibly click an 'Add word' entry in the list to manually add the current word.

Thanks,

Will

Haven't heard of that. Plus it's always a tough task for me to try to convert this into a directive ;)

The good news is that it was already converted:

Yeah I just found that, thanks. Let's see if it can build sentences using the start of each letter (not any letter), and add new words to the list :)

Hi Will,

Thanks Roy this is looking good. When I type an f I get 3 words side by side Actionscript BASIC Coldfusion and a second similar row.

Also how can I make it trigger on the start of the words, not any letters in the word itself, ie starts with f?

Hi,

by the way, i took the code from here.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2382497/jquery-autocomplete-plug-in-search-configuration

One thing i add is to control the number of words appearing in the selection. The previous example will keep on adding the word and if you delete the input and type again, depending, it will have a number of words appearing in the selection.

This is looking great thanks. I'd like the selections below the text input to only show the current word options (ie availableTags list) not the previous choices concatenated. Basically people who can't speak will be able to type a sentence quickly by having autosuggestions. I also hope to store new words in a list after they hit the space bar. Maybe I can figure out how this works :)
