Autocomplete

Create a label and input like you normally would. Then create a datalist element, and add an option element for each autocomplete choice.

Give the datalist an ID. Add the list property to your input with a value equal to your datalist ID.

<label for="states">Who's the best wizard?</label>
<input type="text" id="wizards" name="wizards" list="wizards-list">
<datalist id="wizards-list">
	<option>Harry Potter</option>
	<option>Hermione</option>
	<option>Dumbledore</option>
	<option>Merlin</option>
	<option>Gandalf</option>
</datalist>
