Rails - Jul 2008 - Auto complete shakes my page

Hi All,

I am having a problem with auto complete, something to do with the CSS i
think.


<%= text_field_with_auto_complete
''company'',''name'', {}, :skip_style =>
true, :indicator =>
''status-indicator'',:after_update_element =>
"function(element,value){ $(''experience_details'').show();
$(''company_id'').value = value.id}" %>

When you get a list of companies, if I move my up and down arrow to
shift through the options, the page itself moves up and down (literally
shakes!)

Here is the partial to show the list:

<ul class="auto_complete">
<% for company in @companies -%>
<li id=<%=company.id %> >
<div class ="commenttext bold"><%=h
"#{company.name}" %></div>
<span class="informal" style="font-family:Tahoma, Arial,
sans-serif;color: #333;font-size: .7em;">
<%=h "#{company.org_type}" %>
</span>
</li>
<% end -%>
</ul>

Here is the CSS (which is pretty standard):
.auto_complete {
      position:absolute;
      width:250px;
      background-color:white;
      border:1px solid #ccc;
      margin:0px;
      padding:0px;


}

.auto_complete ul {
      list-style-type: none;
      margin:0px;
      padding:0px;
}

.auto_complete ul li.selected
{
        background-color: #d7ebfe;

}

.auto_complete ul li {
      list-style-type: none;
      display:block;
      margin:0;
      padding:3px;
      height:32px;
}

Please help me solve this.
I tried this on IE, Mozilla and Safari, the page moves up and down in
all 3.

Thanks in advance!
Raj

Hi Raj,
  I''m betting you''ve long since figured this out, but perhaps
its the
forgery protection stuff kicking in? I found that did weird stuff
until I used Ryan''s RailsCasts mechanism instead of the auto_complete
plugin (before I re-vamped, I disabled forgery protection for a few
methods).
