I am searching for a jquery plugin to get a fogbugz like dropdown menu so that you can type in the dropdown menu.

This is what it should look like: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/5910/Jing/2009-05-10_0937.swf ( the old video http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/5910/Jing/2009-05-10_0055.swf )

All the answers have been not giving me the typing part any other suggestions?

EDIT: I found something a bit like it: http://phone.witamean.net/sexy-combo/examples/index.html but there are a couple things that bug me: it doesn't select the whole string we clicking in the textbox and the dropbox doesn't show all options when clicking on the triangle

I found a working demo but its from ext :( http://extjs.com/deploy/dev/examples/form/combos.html not jquery... but it has all the features I neet

I haven't found one yet that has both auto-complete and the combo drop down arrow. However, this plug-in is close.

That's usually called a combobox, you can find a nice jQuery one here:
