Rails spinoffs - Jun 2008 - Ajax.Autocompleter choices

From my reading, I thought that the Ajax.Autocompleter limited the
number of choices displayed in my div to 10.  However, my div is
stretching on to eternity.  I tried specifying the number by using the
choices option like such:

new Ajax.Autocompleter(''startName'',
''startNames'', ''/myUrl'',{
                method: ''get'',
                indicator: ''pacifier'',
                choices: 10
            });

This was ignored.  My expectation was to see a shorter div with a
scroll bar for the rest of the choices.  Have I misunderstood this
option?

I tried getting around this problem by setting the height in the css.
The problem with this solution is that scriptaculous is setting the
width of the box without accommodating for the scroll bar.  Some of my
longer choices are wrapping to the second line, on top of the next
choice.

My final option is to restrict the number of results returned from the
server, but I was hoping to avoid this.  Any suggestion?

I''m thinking my expectation were out of line.  As I look closer at
examples around the web, I''m finding that the suggested results are
not all inclusive.  Therefore, I''m limiting the result set on the
server side.

FYI
