FindTask Live Search

Question

How do I implement a Live Search functionality into this http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/demos/find/find_map_datagrid.html sample?

I've looked around the Web a bit, and I'm at loss where to start.

This is how it looks now, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, I just need to do some CSS and add onclick, onfocus and make it able to scroll between autocomplete (live search) results.

Nice, that is somewhat I want it to look like; now I send the results to a div that I format programmatically and it's quite ugly compared to your method.

Hello,

In the past I've tried to implement an autocomplete (live search ?) for searching an adress which is updated at any key pressed.

I didn't find a solution with a Mapservice.

The only one solution I've found, is to use a PHP wich sends a request to my Database (Oracle) and return the response in a json format.
This Json is formatted for a dojox.data.QueryReadStore which is conected dijit.form.FilteringSelect.
