Show suggestions in a list one by one

Question

How can I show suggestions in a list one by one?

When I run the below codes, I get this as my suggestion when I type in google: ["Google", "Gmail", "Google Maps"].

I want the suggestions to be shown in this way:

Google
Gmail
Google Maps

How can I do this?

If possible, please explain my mistakes.

Thanks in advance

You are returning json formatted objects in suggestion.php but using it as HTML in script_suggestion.php.

Either update suggestion.php to return a HTML snippet or have the javascript in script_suggestion.php decode the json and use that to build the suggestions.

Example HTML output:

echo "<ul>";
foreach($arr as $suggestion){
    echo "<li>".$suggestion."</li>";
}
echo "</ul>";

How can I do this? I want the HTML option. – HFial1964 Jan 03 '14 at 15:34
@HFial1964 You can loop over `arr` and echo out a list. – Jim Jan 03 '14 at 15:36
@HFial1964 I've added an example. – Jim Jan 03 '14 at 16:10
@HFial1964 I'd recommend familiarising yourself with PHP a bit more before trying something as involved as this. – Jim Jan 03 '14 at 16:11
