I had trouble with that last night too.  You need the right css to make 
it work.  I went to the script.aculo.us web site and found the demo page 
that uses the feature you are looking for.  Then do a show page and the 
css is in the page directly.

This is what I''m using... seems to work but I have not really looked at
it.  You can move up and down the list with arrow keys, then hit tab or 
return  to select it.

<style>          div.auto_complete {
            width: 350px;
            background: #fff;
          }
          div.auto_complete ul {
            border:1px solid #888;
            margin:0;
            padding:0;
            width:100%;
            list-style-type:none;
          }
          div.auto_complete ul li {
            margin:0;
            padding:3px;
          }
          div.auto_complete ul li.selected {
            background-color: #ffb;
          }
          div.auto_complete ul strong.highlight {
            color: #800;
            margin:0;
            padding:0;
          }
</style>

Re: How do you grab the high lighted value from auto_complet

So more Q... How do I grab that value and set it into params?
it seems like auto_complete_textfield does not put that value into
params automatically....

Any help is appreciated..

Sounds like you do not have the fields named and labeled.  Did you put a 
lable?

Look at this example:

http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/autocompleter_customized

Good luck.

Re: How do you grab the high lighted value from auto_complet

Perry.. Thanks.. But i''m using auto_complete_field and not
text_field_with_auto_complete...
I think from the example.. text_field_with_auto_complete does it
automatically..
but how do I feed the selected value into params when I''m using
auto_complete_field.

Any help is appreciated...
