Hello, I wonder if any of you sterling chaps (or chapesses) can recommend me a useful tutorial site. I've started developing a site as per http://www.lenguahelp.co.uk/ The way it works at the moment is you enter a word (eg deep, story, compromise) and after submission the site will retrieve various expressions from the database with the Spanish equivalent. What I'm looking for is a way to have a drop down list based on what the user starts entering. For example if the first letter is "a" then words like abacus...abandon...above...abrupt would be displayed in the dropdown list. However if the next letter is 'c' then the list would display words like accept...access...accident (all depending on which words have been input into the database of course). My guess is that I'd need to do this in Javascript/Ajax along with manipulation of css. Is there a relevant tutorial out there? I have done a preliminary google but as yet not found what I need.

In case it's of use to anyone, I used the first suitable link from the "suggested" Google search, and was able to adapt the script to my site.
