Launchpad has a number of pop-up widgets to select, for example, a product or a project from a set of available ones. This spec describes a strategy to implement widgets that look and feel more like the Google Suggests drop-down widget, which is both fast and attractive, and broadly compatible with a variety of browsers. |
To select one or more from hundreds or thousands of items (such as products or people), Launchpad has a standard control that retrieves suggestions based on text you type. This control is implemented using Xml''''''Http and Java''''''Script, and is similar to that used in [[http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1|Google Suggest]]. |
