Hi Vivek,
It is working fine,thanks for help.
regarding js i have doubts in above code.pls help me.

1.function js(value)
   <apex:inputText value="{!search}"  id="search" onkeyup="js(value)"   />
   I used parameterized method but the above code is working even i remove parameter value,Is the declaration is correct and when to use parameterized method,because i used as the method returns a value in inputtext through this parameter.Is it correct,if not correct me


2.I am checking database value  in java script [controller:  pos=Database.query(holdString);] when pos contains letter which dont have records ,it should display no records found ,i am trying as i mentioned above in script but i think its not the write way,this i achived through controller, but i want this validation  through javascript 

as i am new to javascript,pls help me to understand.
