jquery - JavaScript- find text within a page and jump to location in page -


i have webpage large list of records (say 250+ rows of data in table) , want able visit page, start typing, , have jump me first row matches text have typed.

ideally, if continued type more characters first match doesn't match anymore, continue respond input , jump me new match.

i've tried window.find() haven't had success... can reccomend working solution?

i'm looking equivalent hitting 'ctrl-f' on keyboard... except without need hit ctrl-f make happen.

i think tricky part of accepting of user input intelligently. therefore, i'd best thing pass off searching autocomplete-type plugin. once page ready, pass focus input text box, , let plugin magic search...

for example, use quicksearch plugin.

then given table of data , input this:

<input id="searcher" type="text" name="searcher"> 

you have ready function looks this:

$('#searcher').quicksearch('table tbody tr', {     'delay': 100,     'bind': 'keyup keydown',     'show': function() {         if ($('#searcher').val() === '') {             return;         }         $(this).addclass('show');     },     'onafter': function() {         if ($('#searcher').val() === '') {             return;         }         if ($('.show:first').length > 0){             $('html,body').scrolltop($('.show:first').offset().top);         }     },     'hide': function() {         $(this).removeclass('show');     },     'preparequery': function(val) {         return new regexp(val, "i");     },     'testquery': function(query, txt, _row) {         return query.test(txt);     } });  $('#searcher').focus();
