Hey, I am trying to create a search field that will filter or show/hide(which ever is best) the list elements based on what the user typed in and clicked the search button. I have no idea how to do this. everything I tried does not work unfortunately and im unsure of the best approach for this, like do i use show and hide or is there something better?
This is my HTML:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<label for="filter">Filter</label>
<input type="text" name="filter" value="" id="filter" />
<a id="addtag" href="#">Search</a>
<ul>
<li id="Hero1">Superman</li>
<li id="Hero2">Batman</li>
<li id="Hero3">Spiderman</li>
<li id="Hero4">Iron Man</li>
<li id="Hero5">The Hulk</li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
So, if someone types in 'Superman' and clicks the search button, then only the Superman list element will be displayed.
Any help on this would be great. Thanks.
