Google Suggest Dissected...
People have been contributing their two cents to how this works, but I have un-compressed (ie. re-written) Google's compressed javascript, so that the average web developer should be able to get a detailed understanding of how this works.... My final rewrite is available from my website here .
I saw the coolest thing I've seen since realizing that Mozilla was embedding a wsdl-enabled SOAP client into this browser... Google Suggest returns suggested results as you type... This is technically amazing on about at least two different levels:
How fast this is... I type pretty fast, and it updates with every single keypress...
The cool web interface... I used to be pro-server side web updates, and avoiding javascript, but I'm really turning around on this with the impressive interfaces I've seen with gmail, and now google suggest (among others...)
So everyone is impressed by this... My shock and awe goes further in terms of how nice this interface works:
That the suggestion list lines up perfectly with the query input field...
The high-lighting of the additionally suggested text (I type "fa", it suggests "fast bugtrack" and highlights the "st bugtrack" so that the next character I type wipes out it's suggestion... beautiful...)
The great handling of keypresses (cursors up and down...)
And After going through googles code:
How the javascript cache's the dynamic results so that if you backspace, it doesn't have to go back to google...
How the code dynamically adjusts"
