Zusammenfassung:A system and associated method for handling a search request and a corresponding search result. A client program interactively receives the search request from a user pursuant to an input configuration that defines a time period within which the user can continue typing a search term. The client program submits the search request to a server program that returns the corresponding search result having a respective suggestion for each extended search term. The client program displays the corresponding search result pursuant to an output configuration that defines a manageable number of suggestions to be displayed and a visual cue that the corresponding search result is partially displayed and that can be selected for full display of the corresponding search result.
