<datatag> for Google Chrome

I'm working on a search page and <datatag> tag seems to be a great addition. Unfortunately I can't make it work in Chrome (it works in Firefox) and most of my users use Chrome.

Does anyone know what is the Chrome way of auto-completing a search box?

Datalst landed in Chrome Canary

So it will probably work in Chrome 20.

If the <datalist> element isn't supported in the browser yet (which it appears is not the case for the current Chrome), then you will need to use one of the myriad of JavaScript/jQuery based autocomplete polyfills, like jQuery UI Autocomplete.
