AJAX WebControls by BlazeControls : Stock Picker Example

BlazeSuggest is a compact and precise selection tool for those times when you need your users to pick from thousands of possibilities - and when using a regular drop down is simply impractical.

This example uses the auto-postback mechanism set the Stock Symbol indicator below.
