    When instant search was experimental, omnibox was able to show the results of different search engines instantly. When i wanted to search a movie on imdb.com or different site using omnibox, it was be able to show the results real time while i was typing. I don't mean suggestions, i mean that page was changing while i was typing. It isn't now. Is there a way to do that?

    lol It is enabled already! I can search anything on google using omnibox without pressing enter. And i can enter sites without pressing enter. I am talking about search function of different sites that chrome gather. I hope you will understand me.

    Ah, I think that instead of showing it now just renders it in the background and waits for the user to hit enter.

    Maybe there's a way to enable it.

    In firefox, InstantFox Quick Search does what i want. Not only shows the suggestions but also renders the page at the same time when searching something on different sites.

    Please watch the video; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-BvOGf0kaM
    And Chrome was able to do that when instant search thing was experimental.
