Hi All,
I'm a little bit confused...
What this extension is doing other than $wgAjaxSearch=true in localsetting.php is doing?
I think if we put that in localsetting.php, it does the same thing as of this extension.. Or am I mistaken?

I just updated the code. it should work out of the box now.
I added configuration to it in the php file. You can select the number of results that come back. You can select to search in the entire article name (default), or just in the beginning of the name.
The results are now links to the articles, so you can just click on them.
As for the Javascript. I trimmed it down, and: Required 2 characters before search is done. (max 10 incase something leans on the keyboard) Enables a memory system so it will not search if the last search was the same.

I made the changes on the code at mediawiki.org.
In general, I might wait to trigger the search until more characters have been entered. 1 seems like overkill; how useful will the suggestions be when you type 'e'?
In Firefox, the browser's autocomplete tries to run, and sits on top of what the extension is doing. I wonder if that can be suppressed.

I'm having similar problems. I think there's a path problem in setting the header, and the js file isn't loading. Playing with it now.

Hmmm... Im not sure why that is. In the javascript file, do you see the ss_ajax_onload function??

Adam, Excellent! I only don't get it working for some reason... There's an error "ss_ajax_onload is not defined" if I look in the
script errors... Any idea? I use MW1.10 Grietinus
