Search within a list of terminology, similar to dictionary

[MysteryStyle]

Please help. I am working on a website and I plan to have a list of common terminology relating the subject I am talking about. I have an overall search function for my website but I want to have a specific code for searching the terminology. Basically, if the user can type in the search term and go directly to that term within that page then that would be ideal.

It's almost like a small dictionary. It is useless if the user cannot type in the term they are looking for and see it.

Please let me know if there is javascript that can do this specific function. Ideally, it would work within Joomla.

Has anyone worked with something like this or have an example where I could try to copy the code?

Basically I am imagining a long list of terms with a search at the top that brings you down to that term or even just highlights it.
