Formatting the ajax autocomplete results string?

[Ray UK]

Hi,

 

Does anybody know how to format the search results in the search box. (See pic or website)

 

I would like it to show like this

 

Category>

Product

 

instead of

 

Category>Product

 

Also, the height of the scroll box.. how can I change that.

 

I have tried adding "height:300," in the blocksearch-instantsearch.tpl underneath "width:90,"

the width setting works ok, but not the height ?

 

Any help is appreciated

 

Thanks

Ray

this isn't instant search, it is a ajax autocomplete.

you can of course customize it in file /js/jquery/plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.css

... and right after posting I noticed this line

 

parse: function(data) {
       var mytab = new Array();
       for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++)
        mytab[mytab.length] = { data: data, value: data.cname + ' ><br /> ' + data.pname };

 

I added the <br /> in green and it works

 

but still need the height adjusting for the search results

Thanks Vekia, I found what I was looking for and think it looks much better now. 

 

It was indeed in the file you mentioned... I didn't know that one was there

 

see attached piccie

 

p.s I also corrected the title of thread
