floating-box under- input












0















I'm developing a website and per requeriments, there's one thing I can't manage to figure out the best way to implement.



https://www.lacestitadelbebe.es Take a look at this website. You can see there's a search form in the front page, the "c00l" thing about it, is that once you click on the field ("¿Que Buscas?"), it pops up a list of "suggestions". Or categoryes about related stuff.



I'm trying to accomplish the same behaviour, but avoiding loadings (I already have the information to be shown beforehand). I believe it could be accomplished by CSS and hidden divs or bootstrap. The thing is, I do not know how to accomplish that. How to popup a floating box under the exact position of the input box.



Could someone give me an example? Thanks beforehand.

I used the free AJAX Autocomplete for jQuery library on a recent project and it works quite well:



https://www.devbridge.com/sourcery/components/jquery-autocomplete/



Since you know the values beforehand, you can use pre-specified values, look for the "Local lookup (no ajax):" example on the page linked above.



Example: See the search box in the top right corner: https://dosgames.com All of the values are known beforehand.
