The Live Search Plugin is heavily based on John Nunemaker’s
Addicted To Live Search.

Changelog

  • 1.4.7 Fix by Tony for “With mouseover on result in IE, there is no background image or color”.
  • 1.4.6 Added livesearchpopup_resultsbox(width) to put the popup below a search box of your choice, e.g. from a theme.
  • 1.4.5 Do not initialize if no livesearchpopup_results is found. In contrast to the original live search this plugin does not make sense without the popup anyway. This fixes a JavaScript bug in IE7.
