Hi all,
I have done something similar a few weeks ago...
What i had done is the following:
In the form, i added an input object, and a browser object under it. You typed
in the input, and the browser went to that word. This is very easy to program,
as you can attach a callback in the input object to be called upon each keystroke..
You can take its content and find the appropriate line in the browser ...
No, i suppose that you dont want the input object to be visual, so try to do
so with a hidden input. I am sure it is going to work ...
Regards,
g.p
