AjaxSearch now with MooTools

As MODx makes its shift to using MooTools, I decided to go ahead and get AjaxSearch ported over. The search I have in my sidebar is using the latest version, and you can see it in action. Along with the conversion to MooTools, I added in some bug fixes and some new feautes including template and language file support.

The MooTools javascript framework was a breeze to learn, and really provides some great functionality. I think I will look at some more of the functionality to come up with some cool stuff for Wayfinder also. If you want to check out the framework go here: www.mootools.net.

Until quickedit gets converted to MooTools (which is happening right now), you will probably get some errors if you try to run your search while logged into the manager. So if you are using the prototype or scriptaculous libraries (maybe others too), you may experience some conflicts with the updated code.

Here is a list of things that have changed in this version.

  • Conversion to MooTools with enhanced functionality for the live search.
  • Addition of language file support.
  • Addition of template support for increased customization of the output.
  • Tweaked search code for better results.
  • Search Highlight Plugin enhanced for better results highlighting.

So go and get it!
