SID-00095: Auto Completion of TWiki Topics / Link Browser?

Hi there,

I've just started to check out TWiki for our company.

There's one essential functionality I'm missing and haven't found in neither plugins nor addons:

When editing and inserting links, all existing links should be offered in a list for a choice.

This would be absolutely helpful. Is this available at the moment?

Thanks for your help,

Discussion and Answer

This would be a logical enhancement to the WYSIWYG editor. Could be done with some Ajax magic using the YahooUserInterfaceContrib or JQueryPlugin.

See also JSPopupPlugin, TwistyPlugin, TreeBrowserPlugin, TWikiAjaxContrib, TWikiAjaxPlugin.

You should also check out AutoCompletePlugin (which is built on the YahooUserInterfaceContrib, op cit).
