Searching data

What users expect from search engines has evolved over the years. Just returning relevant results quickly is no longer enough for most users. Now users seek methods that allow them to get even more relevant results, to sort and organize results, and to highlight their queries. OpenSearch includes many features, described in the following table, that enhance the search experience.

Feature	Description
Autocomplete functionality	Suggest phrases as the user types.
Did-you-mean functionality	Check spelling of phrases as the user types.
Paginate results	Rather than a single, long list, separate search results into pages.
Sort results	Allow sorting of results by different criteria.
Highlight query matches	Highlight the search term in the results.
