I need the help in modifying the ajax code in retrieving the data items from the database to the text field(like the google). As of now, I have put a <span> tag below the textfield with an Id for placing the data retrieved from the database

I have also attached the screenshot with an example!

no AJAX expert, but try this.
put the text box in that <span> too and dynamically change its size to add and remove terms in the <span> below the text box.
