[nycphp-talk] Editable Select Box

Hi folks, I'm wondering if anybody has seen a particular kind of control 
I need.

It's called many things, but "editable Select box" seems to be a common 
term.  One example that is close to what I want is here:

http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/scripts/form_widget_editable_select/form_widget_editable_select.html

The trouble I'm running into is that none of the example out there seem 
to do quite what I want.  If somebody has seen or used one that does the 
following, any links would be hugely appreciated:

1)  Allows entry of a value not in the box (optionally turn this on or off)
2)  While user is typing, the drop-down list scrolls to the best current 
match
3)  Hitting "enter" or "tab" or whatever with a partial entry picks the 
best current match

Anybody seen this?
