Introduction¶

Users manual¶

When the user enters some text in the search field, the extension will make a database lookup and return a list of matching words.

Adminstration¶

Once the extension is installed, you need to include the static typoscript of the extension, in order for the autocomplete script to be activated correctly.

Add the "autocomplete (pmkisac)" script to the list of selected static scripts.

id="tx-indexedsearch-searchbox-sword"

id="tx-indexedsearch-selectbox-sections"

id="tx-indexedsearch-selectbox-lang"

Using PMKISAC with the T3mootools extension¶

If the "t3mootools" extension is installed, the PMKISAC extension will automatically use the mootools library created from the t3mootools extension.

To create a mootools library that works with PMKISAC, you can use the 3rd option of t3mootools to analyze the PMKISAC javascripts for dependencies, and create the library with the mootools parts you need.

Configuration¶

All configuration of the extension is done using Typoscript Constants. Use the "Constants Editor" of TYPO3 to change these options.

lib.mySearchbox = USER
lib.mySearchbox.userFunc = user_pmkisac
lib.mySearchbox.userFunc < plugin.tx_pmkisac
# "mySearchbox" is the id of the custom search field
lib.mySearchbox.userFunc.cssId = mySearchbox

page.100 < lib.mySearchbox

Known problems¶

• Conflicts with Claus Bruun's Indexed Search AutoComplete (cb_indexedsearch_autocomplete) as it also uses the hook in Indexed Search. (But since both extensions provide the same functionality, there's no point in having both extensions installed.)
• Probably won't work if you have extensions that uses other JavaScript Frameworks than Mootools, such as Prototype or JQuery. This is not a bug, since this extension was written using the Mootools framework.
• Contact me if you find a bug.

To-Do list¶

Nothing. Contact me if you have an idea for improvement.
