AutoSuggest API can be used to display an Auto Suggest input box. The separation of the data and view is what makes AutoSuggestion API flexible and easy to modify and fit different applications. The UIAutoSuggest gets “TextInput” and “TileList” and the “AbstractAutoSuggest ” keep sorting the list of words based on the user interaction, the data is bindable which allow the TileList and TextInput to be updates on the fly.

This API will be in a new Flex 3.0 book I am writing called “Developing Enterprise Architect Applications.” click here to read more and pre-order.
