about

this is the code we use in http://search.freegamedev.net to make the ajax based tagging system

Tagsample.jpg

upper row : assigned tags. click on - removes them instantly with ajax, click on name can open a custom search page

middle row : textentry field : press add to assign a new custom tag, automatically updates upper row using ajax.

bottom row : suggested tags, this list is updated automatically during typing in the middle row, and displays up to twenty tags starting with the string in the textentry field.

add this to the head section of your layout after installing the js lib from http://script.aculo.us/ into app/webroot/js/

you'll need images for the + and - , here named app/webroot/img/add.png and app/webroot/img/remove.png

if(!is_array($tags))$tags = array($tags);

// icon
if($action == "add")$img = $html->image("add.png", array("title"=>"add", "alt"=>"add", "class"=>"icon"));
else $img = $html->image("remove.png", array("title"=>"remove", "alt"=>"remove", "class"=>"icon"));

foreach($tags as $tagname){
	echo "<div class='tag'>";
	echo $ajax->link($img,"/myitems/".$action."Tag/".$id."/".$tagname,array('update'=>$id_taglist),null,false);
