I have a text field with auto complete that allows a user to choose a name from the list and when that name is selected that name is taken out of the list of available username to select from. Today I got notification that someone using my app uses Safari and the described functionality doesn''t work in Safari. In order to make it work I thought I might be able to do some kind of browser detection and then have it display a normal dropdown instead of the auto complete, and then I found that won''t work because that list is just to big to be displayed in a normal drop down, which leads me back to the auto complete. Has anyway got text_field_with_auto_complete to work in a Safari browser?

What I have found out is that when my text_field_with_auto_complete is wrapped within a form_remote_tag it doesn''t work, however, when I use a normal form_tag is works. The problem is that I need the functionality that the form_remote_tag gives me. Has anyone else encountered this problem and could you share on how to fix it.

I am still having this problem, however, now the IDE I use (Aptana) seems to think that I am missing some kind of tag and gives me a "illegally formed XML" error. I know this isn''t a forum for Aptana but I am not entirly convinced that there is in fact an error since, as far as I can see, all tags are closed and created properly. My problem and this error started when I started messing around with this auto_complete field and I am pretty sure it is related. What is happening is that the auto_complete field creates a drop-down as I type but does not select anything when I click on it. Also, in another part of my app I have an auto_complete field that work wonderfully - this is in the Safari browser. My question is has anyone experienced any kind of strange behavor in the Safari browser concerning auto_complete field? And how did you solve them? I should also add that the two fields mentioned before seemed to be formatted exactly the same so it is a bit of a mystery to me why one works and the other does not.
