[Quoted] [Quoted] If I want to have drop down suggestions on a website (like Google does), with the actual suggestions coming from a MySQL table - is MySQL fast enough to handle such things? Like, if some one types "gr", it has to a SELECT FROM table WHERE term = "gr" - is the whole thing, reading from disk included n all, fast enough so that the suggestions will drop down INSTANTLY when "gr" is typed? Any tips n tricks on how to achieve this?
