Autocomplete for Search Results

Please include the following script right before the closing </BODY> tag on every page to make sure the auto complete JavaScript is bound to the search textbox. This will ensure that the auto complete results are displayed as soon as the user starts typing in the text box.
To determine what needs to be displayed in this area, please make changes within the Hawksearch Dashboard.
