If you’re familiar with del.icio.us you will be familiar with the tag suggesting as-you-type support. the tagging works so well within del.icio.us is that it helps you create a subset of tags that you commonly use for different types of links.
This way, it makes it easier to find tagged content later on. i.e. conversely if it didn’t suggest links, it would be likely that you would have different variations or even spellings of the same tag on (what should be) grouped content.
So, in an effort to adopt this approach, Remy Sharp has created a jQuery plugin for tag suggestion. The plugin has been tested on IE 7, Firefox 2, Safari 3 and Opera 9.

[...] Ajax Tags Auto Suggestion jQuery Plugin [...]
Very good plugin.
thanks
the only problem it has is that the ajax response has to be json.
Take a second thought on using this if you have a ajax tagging
Fix needed:
1. Fires request on every key stroke
2. It blocks the thread when user types by sending request to server and waiting for response which will result in user not seeing what he is typing.
